The statewide mask mandate has been extended to March 20. On the day that Wisconsin administered nearly a quarter of a million COVID-19 vaccines across the state, Governor Tony Evers signed an executive order and an emergency order establishing a new statewide public health emergency and face coverings requirement. In a news release Tuesday, Gov. Evers stated, “We’re working every day to get vaccines distributed and get shots in arms to get our state back to some sort of normal. At the end of the day, vaccine supplies are limited, so while we continue to ask the federal government for more vaccines and faster, we have to keep working together to stop the spread today by continuing wear our masks, staying home whenever we can, avoiding gatherings, and doubling down on our efforts to keep our friends, neighbors, and families safe.” You can find Executive Order #104 and Order #1 below.
