CUOMO'S LATEST SET OF DEMANDS: COMING TO NY, NEED COVID TEST, HAS ONCE AGAIN CONSULTED THOSE "EXPERTS"

LOHUD--- ALBANY - New York is scrapping its weekly list of states from where visitors had to quarantine and instead implementing a new COVID-19 testing system for all travelers outside contiguous states.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the change Saturday, saying a rigorous testing standard is a better way to control the virus' spread in New York.

Almost all states were on the state's 14-day quarantine list, making its weekly metrics to determine who met the criteria a fluid system. Even New York itself was trending toward making its own list on Tuesday, when it was next due to be updated.

"Given the changing facts, we’re coming up with a new program," Cuomo said on a conference call with reporters. "And all the experts suggest we shift to a testing system, and that’s what we are going to do."  MORE AT https://www.lohud.com/story/news/politics/2020/10/31/visiting-new-york-covid-quarantine-test-what-to-know/6102236002
