States added:

- Rhode Island
- Wyoming
The governor also announced that New York State has now conducted 10 million COVID-19 diagnostic tests. The number of new cases, the percentage of tests that were positive and many other helpful data points are always available at forward.ny.gov.
“For a clear example of the continuing extent of the COVID crisis in America, look no further than New York’s travel advisory list. The virus’ spread across the country—new cases have increased more than 15 percent in the last 10 days—makes it all the more urgent that we stay vigilant here at home,” Governor Cuomo said. “That’s why New Yorkers need to continue wearing masks, socially distancing and washing their hands in conjunction with the careful enforcement of local governments. We can defeat this virus by staying New York Tough, but we have a long way to go.”
