Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis fired back at his New York counterpart Andrew Cuomo on Saturday after the New York governor said he was considering quarantining Florida residents visiting the Empire State.
Cuomo’s statement On Thursday, Cuomo said he was considering imposing a 14-day quarantine for people visiting from states like Florida, which have seen a spike in new Covid-19 cases.
“I have experts who have advised me to do that,” Cuomo said. “I am considering it now in some ways.”
“You want to talk about a full 180 for those people,” he added. “Florida and other states imposed quarantine on New Yorkers. 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.”
“Fast forward 100 days now,” he continued. “We’re afraid they’re bringing the virus to our state.” DeSantis’ response On Saturday, responding to Cuomo’s statement, DeSantis said: “I think governors are going to do what they need to do. I would just ask them if that’s done, just please do not quarantine any Floridians in the nursing homes in New York.”

No governor has any authority to quarantine people traveling from another state. Cumdrum needs to be hit with a big lawsuit for interfering in interstate commerce.
If Cuomo can put the Floridians in New York nursing homes and collect Federal funds that would fulfill his source of money. He has already collected millions and killed thousands.
How about this for the cities? If you want to set up business, you have to provide sufficient housing for your workers within three blocks of your offices. If that means renting floors of a building and converting them to residential, so be it.
There is also the problem of requiring things like grocery stores and pharmacies. Either within short walking distance, or doing delivery.
DeSantis’ reply was good.
He could go a step further and issue a travel advisory to Floridians that New York is not a safe destination. For many reasons other than Covid-19. :)
Hope Father's Day was good for you...
Hard to imagine Floridians, real Floridians not New Yorkers, wanting to visit the disgusting sewer that is New York. Guy is so ugly and egotistical.
I am announcing with @GovMurphy and @GovNedLamont a joint travel advisory. All individuals traveling from states with significant community spread of COVID into NY, NJ, or CT must quarantine for 14 days.
This travel advisory is effective midnight tonight.— Andrew Cuomo (@NYGovCuomo) June 24, 2020
No one wants to go to your crime infested NYC, loser!
Well, yes. But some of us love upstate and the north country.
Beautiful country.
Too bad they/y’all cannot override the fools in the city :-(
Imagine how (much more) wonderful the state would be.
We can deram. :-)
Exactly.
They just did it...
