A 14-day quarantine will be imposed on travelers coming to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut from states like Florida where coronavirus cases are skyrocketing, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Wednesday in a joint press conference with his two neighboring governors.
“We have to make sure the virus doesn’t come in on a plane again,” Cuomo said during the Manhattan press briefing where New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy and Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont appeared via livestream.
“So we’re announcing a joint travel advisory on people coming in from states with a high infection rate must quarantine,” Cuomo said, noting that the traveler quarantine will last for 14 days.

This is nothing more than petty payback.

Not necessary. My son came home 10 days ago from overseas and he was not directed by any authorities the whole way to self quarantine, but the CDC website suggests it. However he had things to do so I suggested he just go get the antibody test which has a 1-2 day turnaround. And so he found out he’s never been exposed and was able to get on with his activities. The test for having the virus itself takes 5 days or so.
Beats doing nothing for 2 weeks for no reason.

States rights are evil to lie-berals until they can use them for their evil agenda.
If a conservative state tried to do something like this for people from NY, Cuomo would scream that they can't go against federal laws. But now they see them as a way to further their evil lie-beral agenda, and, boom, suddenly their states rights are paramount!!!
Hypocrisy is the core of all lie-beralism!!!!!

Good idea - send them all to nursing homes. I hear there’s plenty of room now.

The virus and Florida residents are the least of their problems. Keeping the violence going is what is keeping people out of the city.

We have a lot of folks who have a winter home in FL where I live. They have been waiting for things to open in the Three States before heading back home, now they are going to be quarantined when they return. Pretty funny, I'm betting they are Democrats, so maybe they think the governors they voted for are doing a good thing. But then, maybe not!

How is he going to enforce this? His dwindling, overworked, vastly underappreciated police force has enough to do and there is no bail anyway. This will be ignored, as it should be.

Hasn't pretty much everyone in NY had the virus already? Sheep immunity, no wait... herd immunity, yeah, that's it.

Says the Cuomo the Granny-killer. How many old folks did you conveniently murder off you heartless killer? Concentration camps for old folks is what you intentionally created.
That said, I wouldn't and will never set foot one in NY and would sooner be shot than go to the festering hell hole that is New York City. I best stop there. The Hen would likely get banned for saying EXACTLY what she really thinks.

Yeah, right.
NYC was the "donor site" for much of the entire country as their infected people bailed out "to avoid the virus" and spread the disease far and wide.

That's OK governor, haven't been to NY since 1988. Heck, I haven't been north of the Mason-Dixon line (and that was just barely) since 2003. Now if you would just keep them there...maybe put up strict travel restrictions at the Delaware Memorial Bridge...catch the rest at the Delaware/Maryland toll booth on I-95...shut down their EZ Pass accts.

So how's it going with stopping all traffic with out of stated tags just to check when they arrived in your hell hole?
Don't snow birds mostly drive back and forth to their winter, vacation homes out of state.

And after that 14 day quarantine, I'd suggest anyone foolish enough to travel to those states should be required to have an additional 14 day mental evaluation quarantine as well.

Oh well. Now I cannot travel in either direction without hitting a 14 day quarantine. I winter in Florida and summer in New York. My home is in New York. Haven't seen the inside of my home in nine months. Our 'leaders' leave so much to be desired. I am sick of the lockdown and the travel restrictions. HOW MUCH LONGER???

Tourist coming to NY to riot, loot and arson must MUST quarantine. Health first, riot later.

My problem solved. Moved to South Florida seven years ago from WNY. Best move, no going back and forth. Just saw in the Buffalo News that Biden got the Dem. endorsement. So many are stuck on stupid.
The same with downstate, Cuomo is like a saint.

This is utter BEE ESS.
I would wager that Florida has a high "coronavirus infection rate" than New York only because they have tested more people. Who cares if someone has the infection but is asymptomatic and is not ill? We were never thinking that all of the lockdown measures would prevent people from ever getting the coronavirus infection---just to "flatten the curve."
I want to see Trump travel to New York from Mar-a-Lago, and see the little punk Cuomo tell Trump that he has to quarantine

This is just toooooo rich! People leaving his state to get away from the Wuhan Cooties caused other states to have to be quarantined. Now he wants to quarantine those coming in. Who in their right mind would be going to New York with all the looting and burning going on. Check him for a fever.

Early in the Wuhan virus drama, didn't Cuomo bitterly complain when other states wanted to do this to New Yorkers? Such a hypocrite!

I would suggest that anyone interested in sightseeing NYC skip it indefinitely. There's more death in New York City than just about any city in the world from the Wuhan Virus. Let Cuomo and DeBlasio's economic woes deepen since their stupidity/incompetence is why NYC's infection/death rate was/is so high to begin with.
