National Guard is visiting the Westchester County Airport this week to ensure
travelers remain safe.
The Guard is partnering with the Department of Health to
help screen travelers at airports across the state and to make sure
quarantining and testing guidelines are being followed.
They also will be staffing testing centers, assembling test
kits and handing out medical supplies.
The overall
mission has been going on for two months across the state, but officially
begins at the airport on Wednesday.
New York has
some of the strictest rules for traveling, which include:
- Getting a negative test three days before leaving
- Quarantining for three days in New York
- Getting a second negative test on day four
If both tests are negative, the traveler can exit quarantine
early. If not, they must stay for 14 days.
Those coming from states bordering New York are
exempt.
The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention is strongly urging people to
reconsider traveling for Thanksgiving.
