Clarion Ledger: “Gov. Tate Reeves announced a new executive order Tuesday that requires every Mississippian to wear a mask at public gatherings and when shopping for the next two weeks”.
“The announcement comes as coronavirus cases and deaths continue to surge and more than 1 in 5 COVID-19 tests in Mississippi are coming back positive, a staggering rate that indicates rampant infection. Reeves said wearing a mask is irritating, but important to stop the spread of coroanvirus. ‘I hate it more than anybody watching today,’ Reeves said at a press conference.”
