ALBANY – Travelers from 35 states and territories will now have to quarantine upon arriving to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut after five states were added to the tri-state travel advisory Tuesday morning.

Nevada, Rhode Island, Wyoming, Minnesota and Arizona were the latest states to make the list, having surpassed 10 average daily COVID-19 cases per 100,000 residents.

All but Wyoming had previously been on the list but fell off when they dipped below the threshold.
