The Supreme Court of Michigan struck down the emergency orders of Governor Whitmer, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to wear a mask!
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services issued their own epidemic orders.
According to WXYZ:
The order took effect immediately:
- At indoor or outdoor gatherings, masks must still be worn.
- Wearing a mask must still be enforced by businesses and government offices, and schools
- only Region 6 is exempt.
- And just as before, the size of indoor gatherings will be limited.
Governor Whitmer taking to twitter, asking Michigan residents to continue to wear a mask.
COVID-19 didn’t stop being a threat because of the court ruling, because we’re tired of it, or because the legislature left town. We all have to do our part, because when it comes to fighting this virus, we are all in this together. pic.twitter.com/5LQwXO9UYi
