Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves stated that he will cancel the authorization of masks and end all commercial restrictions related to the Corona virus.
Reeves said in a tweet on Tuesday: “Starting tomorrow, we will lift all mandates for masks in our own province, and companies will be able to operate at full capacity without any rules imposed by the state.”
He added, “The number of people staying in hospitals has decreased, the number of injuries has decreased, and the vaccine is being distributed quickly …” The time has come! “
Starting tomorrow, we are lifting all of our county mask mandates and businesses will be able to operate at full capacity without any state-imposed rules. Our hospitalizations and case numbers have plummeted, and the vaccine is being rapidly distributed. It is time!

The state of Mississippi declared a state of emergency on March 14, 2020, days after discovering the first cases of the Coronavirus, followed by a stay-at-home order on April 2.
This decision came after the governor of the US state of Texas, Greg Abbott, said that the state will cancel the decision to wear masks, and open all institutions, becoming the largest state to end a decision aimed at preventing the spread of the Corona virus.
Abbott said in a press statement Tuesday, that Texas will eliminate restrictions imposed on determining the number of customers who can enter restaurants, indicating that the new rules will take effect on March 10.
He stressed that removing mandates at the state level does not end personal responsibility and that it is only now that there is no need for state mandates.
The decision comes as state governors relax restrictions on the Coronavirus, despite health experts’ warnings that the epidemic is not over yet.
Texas has witnessed a decrease in the number of injuries and deaths, while hospitalizations have reached their lowest levels since October.
