NEW YORK — Six states have been removed off of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's Travel Advisory list on Tuesday.
California, Hawaii, Maryland, Minnesota, Nevada, and Ohio have been removed from New York’s Travel Advisory list. The Northern Mariana Islands have also been removed.
Puerto Rico has been added once again, after being removed from the list last week.
"When other states and territories make progress fighting COVID-19, that's good for New York and while I am glad to see areas removed from the travel advisory list, it still remains far too long," Cuomo said
