Ohio is among four states added Tuesday to New York's travel advisory list.
There are now 22 states on the list that require travelers – including New Yorkers who visit those states – to self-quarantine for 14 days upon arrival in New York.
Minnesota, Wisconsin and New Mexico were also added to the list, which includes several states in the south and the west such as California, Texas and Florida. Delaware was removed from the list Monday.
The rule is mandatory. People traveling from the states on the list are not supposed to go out in public and, if staying with other people, remain in a separate room and use a separate bathroom.
On Monday, New York announced an order that requires air travelers from states on the quarantine list to fill out a document stating their contact information as well as precisely where they traveled from and where they will be staying.

Those documents, which are available electronically, are handed out on planes and must be turned in by travelers before they leave the airport.
The state also has reporting procedures in place for New Yorkers to notify officials if they believe someone is violating the quarantine.
There has been no information from the state regarding travelers who arrive via car or train.
The state’s travel restriction is focused on states that have a positive rate of more than 10 per 100,000 residents over a seven-day rolling average or has a 10% or higher positive rate over seven days.
