JACKSON, Miss — If you live in the Magnolia state you’ll no longer be mandated to wear a mask or face covering.
Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves announced Tuesday that he’s lifting mask mandates for all counties.
Reeves said his office is getting out of the business of telling people what they can and cannot do.
“The reason the government is no longer telling you that is because of the actions we’ve taken over the last 12 months has gotten us to a point where our total hospitalizations today the second day of March 2021 is about where we were in late May,” said the governor.
