Heads up to anyone coming to NY

[ACZL]

NY just added a whole bunch of other states to their "Travel Advisory" list meaning that if you are from one of the states on their list and staying in NY, you must self quarantine for 2 weeks. Best to check the NY list online if your plans bring you this way.

In particular Tennessee, there are no cases of Covid around here.
In Chattanooga and Nashville there were two clusters of new diagnosed cases early last month in the Latino communities, new arrivals to them, I believe. Don't know about Memphis and Knoxville.

According to the published numbers, Tennessee has had about 8,000 new cases in just the past week.

Where is ‘around here’?

I doubt they can restrict travel according to what county you come from.

Unfortunately Florida didn’t enforce a mandatory 14 days quarantine of the NYers back in April fleeing NY. Guess why SE FL has twice the #s as the rest of FL? What a joke NY has for a governor and the killer NYC mayor... requiring cases returned to nursing homes. Not sure why anyone would want to go to NY. Sorry upstate but the rest of your state sucks.

CA is in the mandatory list. King Cuomo the 2nd layed out the facts and is getting the job done based on science, despite what other so called "leaders" have done.

The CDC layed out the guide lines for the nursing homes and they were followed in NYS. Perhaps the implemenation wasn't as good as it could have been, but that is mostly the CDC and nursing homes responsibility. Of course they were handicapped by lack of testing, and PPE for nursing home staff and patients.

If you expect something to be 100% correct, then trust nothing. I'll stick with medicine.

Your understanding goes against medical science, is in direct conflict with what other countries have done effectively, and has nothing to do with the subject of this post.

Medical science has other agendas to worry about right now. Like telling states how to list Covid deaths. Basically anyone that dies has Covid!
Can’t trust anyone anymore!

With a Billion dollar cut to the NYPD just who is enforcing the self quarantine, certainly not the young people. Power freaks are boggiemen.

I have unfortunately had to go to the ERs 5 times this past month.
Most of the beds are empty at VA in Nashville or were and in Chattanooga at other hospitals a lot of empty beds and Covid cases none.
NY's Governor, I think is playing a political game, with people, and that's not right wish such a serious or any disease

People believe what they want to believe, what they hear from social media and non medical people, instead of what all the medical experts are saying.

It's my understanding that masks and distancing are not going to cut it. It is only going to prolong it until this whole thing plays out just like other deadly flu or plagues it eventually goes away

I support NY’s decision and hope it works. The virus in California is out of control and there is no need for us to visit NY now.
