COVID-19 cases continue to climb in the Tri-State Area.
New Jersey has added new states to its quarantine list and New York set up checkpoints Wednesday, the first day of new travel rules, CBS2’s Jessica Layton reported.
Members of the New York City Sheriff’s Office said they will be stopping vehicles periodically at the tunnels into the city.
Drivers can expect questions about where they are coming from, if they’ve traveled in the last 14 days, and if they have any symptoms of COVID-19.

The department also wants to know if the driver has completed any necessary travel forms that might apply to them if they’re coming from a state on the travel advisory list.
“In theory, it’s a good idea,” one driver said. “It’s crowded in New York, so it’s like, if people are coming from out-of-state, I think to control COVID.”
“There’s gonna be people that don’t like it, for sure,” another driver said. “I mean, people wanna go into the city and they don’t like to be asked questions ever.”

“Don’t tread on me”
new York is slowly falling.
how will we be able to visit the Rebbe? our children to get engaged? we don’t have to go to crown heights but the freedom to visit our Rebbe that is what pains me!
THis is socialism. This is communism. This is not about covid. its the control of the people! and it needs to end!
Enough!
If trump doesnt overturn bidens fraudulent win it will only be getting worse
are are we so opposed to reducing the spread of Covid? Do you you really want to see the hospitals overflowing again like they were in the Spring? Expecting travelers from high rate states to quarantine or to test and wait for the results is not such a big deal in the face of a pandemic. Please don’t respond that it’s not so bad and only the old people are dying and they don’t count.
No need to stop the world
there is a aibeshter, and not 1 person passed away that he didnt want to. just remember as a frum jew you should know better. and it was a scam that the dem party brought to the usa to rig the fake elections. soon Trump will have it recalled and all those that were involved will be locked up, if there lucky, as reason and destruction has a different punishment
Just tell them ur going to vote and you won’t have to quarantine 🤷🏻♂️
China is already back to work. New Zealand is already back to work. Ditto VietNam. Ditto South Korea. Ditto Taiwan. You stop the world, then you don’t need to stop it. Instead the USA is on its THIRD WAVE. Shameful.
Because it’s an obvious ploy by globalists and globalist countries to take down the sovereignty of the USA and sheep non-thinking believe-the-tv types are enabling their own destruction. The PLANDEMIC is a FARCE.
If you have survived the projected viral impact next spring, you might appreciate the attempts made to reduce impact despite your name calling and attempts to dishonestly avoid a reasonable attempt to try to limit the disease .
it wasn’t a china virus, the dems brought the virus to the world to use it for the rigged election. we cant wait for the day when they will all be locked up
