NEW YORK, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Tuesday that negative COVID-19 test results should be required not only for travelers from the United Kingdom but those from all countries, as infections of a new, more contagious variant of the coronavirus that was initially discovered in the UK have been found in four U.S. states.

"How many times does the fed gov't have to learn the same lesson? They should require ALL internat'l travelers to test negative before entering the U.S.," he tweeted.
