In an effort to combat the coronavirus pandemic, governors in Connecticut, Illinois and New York announced executive orders on Friday requiring all nonessential workers to stay home as much as possible — a day after California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a similar order requiring all nonessential workers
At a press conference on Friday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo dismissed the idea that his executive order was a “shelter in place” mandate.
Earlier this week, use of the phrase “shelter in place” had caused some confusion. Prior to Newsom’s statewide action, several counties in California issued orders instructing residents to “shelter in place,” and New York Mayor Bill de Blasio had also warned New Yorkers that a “shelter in place” order could be implemented.
"The situation of having everyone in a wide geographic area — including people with no known exposure — limit their contacts with others for an extended period of time is not one for which there is a set vocabulary,” Yahoo News public health contributor Kathryn Jacobsen says. The order issued by New York — which is similar to orders issued by other states — encourages people to stay home as much as possible. But residents can still leave their homes for groceries, medicine and exercise, as long as they stay at least six feet away from others. Nonessential businesses are required to close, but a long list of essential businesses including restaurants, convenience stores, gas stations and health care providers will remain open.
