For the first time since the New York State travel advisory was enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic, travel between border states is being discouraged.
Every Tuesday, changes are made to New York's Travel Advisory list by Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Neighboring states Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania now meet the criteria for the travel advisory. However, given how the states are inter-connected, a quarantine on these states is not practical.

"We are now in a situation where 43 states meet the criteria for our travel advisory. This is really a bizarre outcome, considering New York once had the highest infection rate," Governor Cuomo said Tuesday. "There is no practical way to quarantine New York from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Connecticut. There are just too many interchanges, interconnections, and people who live in one place and work in the other. It would have a disastrous effect on the economy, and remember while we're fighting this public health pandemic we're also fighting to open up the economy. However, to the extent travel between the states is not essential, it should be avoided."

Suddenly Cuomo is now concerned about the economy? Strange, I thought we is the middle of super deadly virus and we mist do anything to stop it.
Also, CT, NY and PA all have strict CCPVirus rules, including mandating masks. What happened?
I hope these fleeing rat New Yorkers lurking all over PA the past few months go back and fix New York instead of infecting us down here.
Cuomo [he that was never that Great] needs to stop talking to avoid the spread of the BS virus.
I have never understood why Yale can’t fix New Haven.
They are off their rockers.
I would say that the title is good advice, coronavirus or no.
Now I kinda wanna visit New York just because Cuomo says he doesn’t want me too.
And wasn’t he the one who had the meltdown when Rhode Island started quarantining NYers are the beginning of this whole thing?
What a stinking hypocrite.
Totally agree with those guys! What in the world is Cuomo thinking?
As I recall, yes he did lose his mind over Rhode Island me and getting a quarantine for anyone from New York.
The really stupid thing right now is Rhode Island is still on the quarantine list for it I believe Connecticut and Massachusetts residents, and has been since May or June. When the idiotic governor of Connecticut realized everyone was ignoring that And going to Rhode Island for the beaches and what not anyway, he said it was safe to go for a day trip but if you want to stay overnight apparently then the virus will get you And you must quarantine on return.Such a smart virus.
Declare victory
It’s moving vans that must be stopped!
These states are filled with low-IQ types who publicly ignore even the most basic precautions; there has been a “brain drain” here for decades.
Oh, yes you have...
