CDC Issues Travel Advisory for New York, New Jersey and Connecticut
After a tumultuous 48 hours, in which the state of Rhode Island threatened to stop any car with New York license plates and President Trump considered quarantining New Yorkers, the Centers for Disease Control issued a travel advisory urging residents of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut to avoid out-of-state travel for 14 days due to the spread of coronavirus.
The CDC advisory issued Saturday night urged those living in the tri-state area to refrain from non-essential domestic travel for 14 days effective immediately.
That excludes employees of critical infrastructure industries as defined by the Department of Homeland Security, according to Forbes, which includes "employees of critical infrastructure industries, including but not limited to trucking, public health professionals, financial services, and food supply.”
The CDC said the governors of the three states will have full discretion to implement this Domestic Travel Advisory.
