(CBN News) A bill introduced by a New York State Assemblyman would give Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) the authority to remove or detain someone deemed a threat to the public health amid concerns over the coronavirus pandemic.
Assembly Bill A416 states that a questionable individual or group of people “shall be detained in a medical facility or other appropriate facility or premises designated by the governor.”
Even those without an illness can be confined if they had “contact” with someone who might have been sick, despite the fact that they were symptom-free.
