Cuomo: NY, CT and NJ are taking joint regional action to reduce the spread of COVID-19

Andrew Cuomo ✔@NYGovCuomo

#BREAKING: NY, CT and NJ are taking joint regional action to reduce the spread of #COVID19:

Effective 8PM TONIGHT:

-Crowd capacity reduced to 50
-Restaurants/bars will be takeout/delivery ONLY
-Gyms closed
-Movie theaters closed
-Casinos closed


The #Coronavirus doesn't care about state borders, so this agreement with @GovNedLamont & @GovMurphy will help protect the entire Tri-State Area.

These temporary closures will last as long as is necessary to protect the public health.

Grocery stores will remain OPEN.


Our primary goal is to slow the spread of #Coronavirus so that the wave doesn’t crash our healthcare system. Social distancing is the best way to do that.

I have called on the federal gov't to implement nationwide protocols, but in their absence we are taking this on ourselves.

Good thing I'm not the party chick I used to be. And my significant other is going to hunker down with me for a while, instead of traveling all over.

We can both work from home for a while so that's good!
