This week brings even tighter restrictions to combat the spread of COVID-19. The entire state is under a mandatory stay at home order as of 5 p.m. Monday, March 30th.
Essential businesses listed in the order may still operate. You're not completely confined to your home. You can still leave your home to get food, medicine or other essential needs.
