Gov. Walz to announce next steps in state’s COVID-19 response Tuesday
Gov. Tim Walz is going to announce the next steps in the state’s response to COVID-19 on Tuesday.
On Monday, Walz did not specifically indicate that another stay-at-home order is immediately on the horizon, however he did say that it is something state leaders are considering, particularly if concentrated efforts aren’t effective.
Walz: ‘Testing strategy is key,’ more than a dozen new COVID-19 testing sites statewide announced
"It makes sense to us, now, to target those much more surgically, much more aggressively, than a statewide stay-at-home order because, at this point in time, we’ve learned that we can do retail, we can do education, some of it in person, if we’re able to test, contain and contact trace those folks to get it isolated," Walz said in a statement.
