The mandate was set to expire on January 31st.
According to a press release by the Jackson-Madison County Regional Health Department, the mandate will go into effect at 12:01 a.m. on February 1.
It states that all residents and employees of any business must wear a mask in public places, with the exception of children under 2 years old and people who are dining at a restaurant.
Union University student Riley Barr stopped to talk with WBBJ 7 Eyewitness News to share her thoughts on the mask mandate extension.
“I think that it’s a good safety precaution just so no one can get sick or be in harm’s way, because I know I don’t want to get sick,” said Barr.

MADISON COUNTY, Tenn. The Madison County Commission voted in favor of having the Jackson-Madison County Health Department deal with requests related to proposed mega chicken farms.
“We’re limited about what we can do and the full body put it on the property committee’s agenda for us to discuss when we met this month,” said District 10 County Commissioner Harold Petty.
Petty says commissioners attempted to help as much as they could, but found they were limited by state law.
“I put it before CTASK and before our county associate organization, and they all pretty much told us the same thing, that law logistics on the books that kept us from taking any kind of action as far as zoning goes,” Petty said.
