De Blasio Unleashes “COVID Checkpoints” To Catch &
Fine NYC Travelers Who Violate Holiday Quarantine 1


By Tyler Durden

As
millions of Americans
defy the CDC’s warning not to travel
for the holiday season, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio has once again
dispatched police to key traffic chokepoints where his quarantine
rules will be strictly enforced.

New York City Sheriff Joseph Fucito said the sheriff’s office
(a separate entity from the NYPD) will conduct spot checks when
out-of-state buses drop riders off at the curb, and will also check
cars with out of state and New York licenses plates. Test-and-trace
teams will also be on the ground to help direct people to testing
sites while providing “education” about quarantine.

New York’s statewide 14-day holiday quarantine mandates that
travelers quarantine, or take a test showing they’re negative.
Violations of self-quarantine will be enforced, and may carry fines
of $1,000 to $2,000, the mayor’s office has said.

Around the US, few jurisdictions have actually enforced
quarantine and social distancing rules, though people have been
killed in fights spurred by mandatory mask requirements. Some
governors, including Kristi Noem in South Dakota, have refused to
make wearing masks and other social distancing measures
mandatory.

But most governors who have imposed mandatory mask orders and
other measures typically haven’t enforced those measures by
doling out fines, unlike authorities in Europe.

According to anecdotal reports, travels through NYC’s airports
have had to complete contact tracing forms for weeks now. The city
will continue to enforce those measures at both of the city’s
airports, as well as Grand Central and Penn Station, as well as the
Port Authority bus terminal.

Lines at NYC testing centers reached record numbers over the
weekend, a sign that many New Yorkers still planned to travel, and
were hoping to get tested before leaving. This is irritating many
self-appointed COVID travel referees…

Yes a negative test result is
good news, BUT…https://t.co/rA9GDt2t3G

…who chimed in to remind their followers that a negative COVID
test
doesn’t mean you can safely socialize with others
. We’re
curious to see how many people adhere to that guidance.
