As coronavirus cases hit record high, New York expands quarantine restrictions for 22 states

This is why we can’t have nice things: As coronavirus cases reach an all-time high, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that travelers entering New York from 22 states must undergo a 14-day mandatory quarantine.

New York, New Jersey and Connecticut previously declared a mandatory 14-day quarantine for travelers entering from regions with heightened rates of COVID-19 cases; Cuomo’s injunction adds Kansas, Minnesota, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin to the list.

“We now have to make sure that the [COVID-19 infection] rate continues to drop,” New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said in a June 24 Facebook live announcement alongside Governors Philip Murphy of New Jersey and Ned Lamont of Connecticut. “We also need to make sure the virus doesn’t come in on a plane.”

The travel advisory went into effect at midnight Thursday, June 25, applies to anyone arriving from a state with a 10 percent or higher infection rate increase over a seven-day rolling average.
