Mississippi Gov Extends Statewide Stay-Home Order Amid Virus

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves is extending his statewide stay-at-home order until April 27 to try to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

The order has been in place since the evening of April 3, and it originally was set to expire Monday morning. The extension expires April 27.

“We need one more week to break the back of our enemy,” Reeves said during a news conference Friday morning. He thanked people for their strength, courage and perseverance.

“You have saved lives every hour you stayed home, every time you've used common sense, every gathering you've missed,” Reeves said.

Reeves said he wants to reopen the economy when it's safe, and that could mean easing restrictions in some parts of the state but not in others after the new stay-at-home order expires. He also said his other orders, including one requiring people to avoid large groups and to maintain distance from one another, remain in place.

Reeves said that Mississippi is in the “worst, hardest” part of the curve of virus cases.

“I know we cannot stay in this position for much longer, but we are still in the eye of the storm,” Reeves said.

He said he will allow lakes and beaches to open starting Monday, but people will not be allowed to go in large groups.

“It’s a small thing, but I hope it helps even a bit for people who need to safely get out in the sun for their own sanity," Reeves said.
