New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo issued an emergency health order that makes it mandatory for out-of-state travelers from COVID-19 hotspot states to provide their contact details to the state when they arrive to New York.

“Out-of-state travelers from designated high-COVID states must provide their contact information upon arrival,” Cuomo said on Monday. The order goes into effect on Tuesday.
