It's a "full 180" move, said New York's governor, after Gov. DeSantis required people traveling from New York to Florida to quarantine in late March.

People traveling from Florida to New York may soon be required to quarantine upon their arrival in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Thursday.

Cuomo called the move, which he is still mulling, a "full 180," after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis required people traveling from New York to Florida to quarantine in late March, Sun Sentinel sister paper The New York Daily News reported Thursday.

"If you went to Florida, you had to quarantine for two weeks because they were afraid that New Yorkers were bringing the virus to their state," Cuomo said Thursday, according to the Daily News. "You want to talk about a full 180. Fast forward a 100 days, now we're afraid they're bringing the virus to our state."

Florida likely won't be the only state affected by the move, if Cuomo decides to enact it. New York may require people traveling from any states seeing upticks to quarantine, the Daily News reported. He also has not made a determination as of Thursday night.
