I get that, but that speaks to how illogical the whole thing is to begin with. The risk of exposure is the risk of exposure, no matter how much an imposition it is. If anything, neighboring New Jersey poses more of a risk than other states with all the transients. The NY Governor seems to want to limit exposure to nothing, yet there's exceptions to his policies all over the place. If FL came off our list today and we went, and then FL was added back on Saturday while we were still there, my risk to NY when I return would be no different than someone else who traveled to FL on Saturday and then returned to NY. To clarify, I am NOT wanting more quarantines and less exemptions! Not at all. But I would have less of a problem with the whole thing if it were more consistent and made more sense.I think this relaxation of the rule makes sense. It's similar to the fact that NY announced that New Jersey is exempt from the quarantine list no matter how bad its numbers might get. In effect, the governor recognizes that to close the exchange of people between NY and NJ is simply unrealistic. I suppose it is possible that NY might reconsider this should NJ's numbers get far worse than we can imagine, but as of now that's my understanding. Now, that's not So, similarly, I think NY recognizes that it is too much of an imposition to ask residents to risk quarantine any time they travel to a state not on the list if there is no guarantee that state(s) they visit won't be put on the list while they are away. In both cases, it's an exemption not based on science or uniform standards, but still rooted in reality.
On an unrelated note and to get back on topic, is there a web site anyone uses that conveys FL numbers on a daily basis? The site I use updates every Tuesday, but I'd prefer to check daily as we get closer to our trip.
