Gov. Ned Lamont officially extended Connecticut’s COVID-19 state of emergency Tuesday, allowing executive orders signed over the past 10 months to remain in place through April 20.
The state of emergency was originally scheduled to end Feb. 9, having already been extended once before.
“The people of Connecticut are to be commended for their actions to prevent the further spread of this virus, and I truly believe that the steps they’ve taken have made an impact,” Lamont said in a statement. “That said, the virus is not going to suddenly end on February 9, and to eliminate all of these preventative measures on that day would be irresponsible and in many cases life threatening.”
