NY uses highway signs to send message about coronavirus. SYRACUSE, N.Y. — On highways across New York, the state is sending a message about the coronavirus pandemic:
![a sign on the side of a fence: Drivers are being reminded to \u201cstay home\u201d and slow the spread of coronavirus along I-690 in Syracuse.]({"default":{"load":"default","w":"80","h":"54","src":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/BB11nB27.img?h=535&w=799&m=6&q=60&o=f&l=f"},"size3column":{"load":"default","w":"62","h":"42","src":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/BB11nB27.img?h=418&w=624&m=6&q=60&o=f&l=f"},"size2column":{"load":"default","w":"62","h":"42","src":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/BB11nB27.img?h=418&w=624&m=6&q=60&o=f&l=f"}})
“Stay home, save lives.”
The message boards are posted on highways from Albany to Buffalo and from Binghamton up to the Canadian border. In the Syracuse area, they are on the side of Interstate 81, Interstate 690 and the New York State Thruway. The signs are using three messages to implore drivers to self-isolate:
