Whitmer toughens Michigan requirement to wear masks with new executive order: What it says

Source: Detroit Free Press

LANSING — Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Friday toughened and expanded Michigan's mask-wearing requirements, saying that wearing masks is the best way to reverse an increase in coronavirus cases.

Whitmer issued an executive order that:

Requires any business that is open to the public to refuse entry or service to people who refuse to wear a face covering, with limited exceptions.

Requires the use of face coverings in crowded outdoor spaces.

Reiterates that individuals are required to wear a face covering whenever they are in an indoor public space.

Michigan and Kentucky, bordering us on each side, are handling this pandemic more sanely and their infection rates are lower.

I support "that woman from Michigan". Yeh. Yah. Bravo. This is what leadership is. She started early in trying to limit the spread of this virus and she has stayed on the case.
