BREAKING: NY, NJ, CT governors jointly impose 14-day quarantine for visitors entering region from states with high coronavirus infection rates.

"We have to make sure other states don't infect us now,"."So we're now afraid that we have the low infection rate. People get on a plane and they come to New York. And I have people calling me all day long, saying they're worried about where they are. They want to come to New York — and that's great, but we don't want them bringing the virus here."

New York state, and New York City in particular, were the hotspots of the virus back in March and April.Cuomo lashed out at states that have been more aggressive in restarting businesses. "Those states that had this blind, 'OK let's do whatever we want to do and we'll reopen immediately,' they have serious problems now," Cuomo told"Today."

"Anyone who thinks we could have opened sooner, look at Florida, look at Arizona, look at Texas, look at the other 23 states that are going up, and it shows that we were smart and right."

I am so very sad for our Country. No leadership only- death sorrow pain despair anguish suicide and blindness realDonaldTrump will flip

I can help the Governors identify the infected low-lifes coming from SC. I will begin tweeting pics to them of the NY, NJ & CT license tags of the tourists vacationing at the beach here!

GovernorTomWolf why isn’t PA doing this as well?! SenBobCasey

Good, stay the fuck out. We had to deal with this shit for months to get it down. Y'all didn't listen. 🖕🏼

GovernorTomWolf can you please do this here.

GovernorTomWolf please protect PA and do this as well. 🙏🏼

I want to see if they enforce this against the recent visitor to Arizona, president Trump or are we going to have a double standard even though he refused to wear a mask?

Good luck carrying that out!

I hear New Yorkers are leaving by the droves to Florida and Arizona. Are they being quarantined too?

I have seen several cars in Utah this week with New York license plates. Now New York wants to quarantine visitors from Utah. Does that include New Yorkers who visited Utah (possible spreaders) or just Utahns visiting New York?

Im seeing the abolish/defund the police folks seem to be fine with the cops (including the NYPD) potentially having free reign to stop and harass minorities driving with licence plates from said states under the guise of screening. Does nobody have principles anymore?

I have a better idea: BoycottNewYork

Oh wait what's this?

KatyTurNBC So much for a national response. The federal government failed us all.

The problem is that we have a man in the WH who is incapable of leading our country. He takes no responsibility and refuses to enact any federal rules in relation to COVID-19. He has left it all to the individual states. AND THAT STRATEGY HAS FAILED MISERABLY.

Good

And are you telling me they will be stopping drivers to check everyone or is this just for flights

How is this enforced? If you fly in and fly out before 14 days does the airline say something?! Confused

I am not suprised. They did the same to us. New Jersey and New York which have been the two hot spots have been say i agree with Governor Cumo on this one.

That’s completely unenforceable without federal backing and absurd. No one will do this because there’s zero accountability to do so.

does that go residents too?

When you play maga games, expect to win stupid prizes. 🤷🏻‍♂️

“Residents of those states are not being barred from coming to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, so the action is largely advisory.” Exactly. For this to work it has to be enforced. It’s not. Just another pretend to do but do nothing political game.

Pretty sure this is unconstitutional

Please, stay tf out of CT. We have a good thing going.

I hope people comply! Staying cooped up sucks, but dying sucks more!

Imagine them thinking people wanna visit their trash heaps so bad they would quarantine first

Could this bum be ANY more of a hypocrite, phony and liar?! NursingHomeSlaughter nursinghomes Karma MatildaCuomo DropDeadCuomo coronavirus KillerCuomo

Remember when we made ppl on cruise ships quarantine ON the cruise ship for 14+ days and now we are just like oh well don’t wear a mask 🤦🏻‍♀️ good times.

What if I want to protest on the Subway 🚇

How can they enforce this tho? Americans have been selfish from the beginning of this thing

My, my how the tables have turned! Gov Desantis likes to negatively reference NY and now FL’s numbers are spiraling out of control!

Looks like alot of people will fly into safe states then continue from there to Ny, NJ, Conn

Everyone stay home!!!

phelps_chris

GOOD!!!!!!!!!

IT'S A CRYING SHAME WERE THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS HEADING? YOU LET IT HAPPEN?

I feel like NY and MA should be on both of CT and NJ lists. Hardest hit states in the Northeast

KatyTurNBC Here's the thing though, people don't care. If we think people are going to fly from AZ to NY for business or pleasure & then quarantine for 14 days before going out, we are kidding ourselves.

New York, New Jersey and Connecticut need to add DC to this list so Trump can can’t golf at his club unless he quarantines for 14 days.

Unless of course, you’re going to protest somewhere, because then, ya know, it’s your right... give me a break

We’re not playing up here in the Tri State!!

Hopefully Massachusetts joins this!!!

How about keeping New Yorkers up there. We have been seeing them down here for months.

Two 'minor details' questions: 1. Is this legal? 2. From a practical standpoint is it enforceable?

Remember when some people said that covid was just a NY problem? Yeah, look who's restricting who from being in their state now

thomaskaine5 Good.

Who would go to those states?

But. But. Trump said the Corona Virus is 'going away.' 🤔

You notice how California isn’t on that list but they should be.

3 states that make up nearly 1/3 of the deaths trying to tell others what to do is peak 2020.

Now they know damn well ain't no one on vacation or coming in town gonna stay in the house for 14 days hell it would be time to leave ur vacation by time 14 days up

Good

Unconstitutional

But will they listen?

California should be on the list by week's end. PA should be joining NY, NJ, and CT as well...keeping in mind that PHLAirport is an AmericanAir fortress hub.

KatyTurNBC How is this going to be enforced?

Good

KatyTurNBC Good for them. EU is about to ban us as a country. If u care about the integrity of this country, you'll do the right thing and wear your mask and social distance. COVIDIOTS

NYGovCuomo NYCMayor Who really wants to come to NY after this 🤔🤔🤔🤔 turismo it’s death... for this city...! Unless we use ah bubbly suit it’s simple and safe for everyone ...! Need ASAP.!!!

😂😂😂Poor old andrewcuomo trying to hide behind his nursing home scandal!

What about Rhode Island GovRaimondo

I wish that Pennsylvania had done this to New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey in the beginning maybe our numbers would have been lower. We had so many out of state license plates in parking lots, you had to question if it was worth going into a store for necessities....

GovRaimondo RIHEALTH why hasn’t RI signed on with these states? Quarantine COVID19Quarantine KnockItOff

This isn’t the United States. I honestly don’t know what TF it is, but this isn’t the United States. We’ve never acted like this, even when planes were crashing into buildings and terrorists were making threats left and right - we never sheltered in place or closed everything.

Good! NJ is seeing lower numbers. Don’t need a spike to put us back into jeopardy.

Of course they did, they were given orders

There just went my idea of visiting family in New York. I’d spend my whole time in quarantine.

Visitors from the below states are currently required to quarantine for 14 days after entering the NY/NJ/CT region, according to Gov. Cuomo: Alabama Arkansas Arizona Florida North Carolina South Carolina Washington Utah Texas Latest:

Dotard Tunt removed CDC staff from inside China, ignored warnings, played golf, cheated on Malaria & ranted endlessly on Twitter while Americans died... Dotard's Body Count 123,766.

All travel should be banned in the US

They might want to ban travelers from Florida...... Florida's new cases today are 5,508

Please don't even think about coming. You will be required to wear a mask. We believe in science.

🌴🌴🌴🌴

Total nonsense, yesterday Fauci said that the death rate is on the decline. Democrats have lost their minds!

Quarantine them in nursing homes?

FL just annouced 5,500 new cases since yesterday! Save our state! SOS!

How’s that going to work for major league sports? Do the Yankees, Mets, Jets and Giants cancel their games against teams from these states?

Glad to see even if I can't visit my home for a few days I'd rather know my family is being protected unlike my governor who is doing nothing for me here in Texas

You are damn right!!!! ''We've taken our people ... though hell and back,' New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy told reporters, via a remote feed in a briefing hosted by Cuomo in Albany. 'This virus is risky enough on its own, in terms of the potential to flare back up.'

Great idea but will never be enforced.

Smart idea, I wish Florida would be more smart about things and not so negligent I really don’t like living here Government here is pathetic!!

Time for a little tit for tat

Looking at you Florida.

NE states were mocked due to COVID-19 and now look. Red state outbreaks were so predictable and yet still refuse to follow what works as demonstrated.

High Infection States: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Washington, Utah and Texas This is a wise decision as each state is handling the pandemic differently, but this decision also may be problematic for interstate commerce. I see potential lawsuits.

Yj3

MattyHerrmann uh oh

MetsSouthFla you may need to cancel that ticket my love

There is no way to enforce that. The US really screwed up.

Good luck enforcing this

It's tyranny as the virus gets weaker but lame stream and those pushing to kill the economy spread panic.

How is Arizona not on that list?

Keeping the GOP Coronavirus out.

❤😍

JPW_NBCSports Remember when trump floated a quarantine of these 3 states and they screamed bloody murder?

Unless you’re there to riot, quarantine doesn’t apply 😂😂😂

Seems to me that it should be the other way around.

If you’re out of 14 day quarantine when you go to Hawaii you get arrested

How are they ever going to Enforce that? Checkpoints at all the borders?
