A New York barber who defied stay-at-home orders and continued to “illicitly” cut hair has tested positive for coronavirus, county officials said in a public health notice this week. Ulster County officials are now recommending anyone who received a haircut from the barber in the past three weeks should seek a coronavirus test.
Under Governor Andrew Cuomo’s “New York Pause” policy, barbershops, beauty salons, nail salons and other personal hygiene services have been ordered closed to reduce the risk of spreading the virus.
