New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio urged all New Yorkers to avoid interstate travel this November to avoid spreading the Coronavirus during the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday weekend and beyond.
“I have to urge all New Yorkers: do not travel out of state for the holidays,” said de Blasio. “Do not travel to a state with a high infection rate. Do not travel to a country with a high infection rate.”
“For those who do travel, recognize how important it is to get tested and recognize there is a very strict quarantine in New York State and if you go elsewhere you will have to observe a two-week quarantine coming back. There are a few states that is not true for -but only a few states- the vast majority of American states now are on the New York state quarantine list,” he added.
There are 40 states in the USA currently on New York’s no-travel advisory list.

'ROUTINE ERROR': 6,700 North Carolina Residents ‘Incorrectly Told They Have Coronavirus’ via Text
Nearly 7,000 residents in North Carolina were told via text message last week that they tested positive for the Coronavirus despite not actually having contracted the disease.
“More than 6,700 individuals in Mecklenburg County in North Carolina were told in a text message sent from Mecklenburg County Health Department on Friday that they tested positive for COVID-19 and over 500 people were told through a county email that they were also infected with the novel coronavirus. But the results were incorrect due to a technical error by Health Space, the company they use for contact tracing, according to a statement on the county’s website,” reports Fox News.
“An error during routine maintenance last Friday resulted in a county data vendor sending erroneous texts and email messages to people saying they were positive for COVID-19,” the statement on the county website said.
“Very quickly we began to work with the vendor to understand the issue and make sure that it did not continue. Once corrected we were told that 6,727 text messages and 541 emails were sent to individuals who were already in their system. We then worked with the vendor to send a corrected text/email to all that received the erroneous one,” the email stated in part.
