JACKSON, Miss. (WTVA) - Mississippi extended its Safe Recovery order through Dec. 11.

The order was set to expire on Wednesday, Nov. 11.

Gov. Tate Reeves also reset his county-specific orders.

Masks are required in Benton, Carroll, Covington, DeSoto, Forrest, Harrison, Humphreys, Jackson, Lamar, Lauderdale, Leflore, Lee, Marshall, Rankin and Yalobusha counties.

“I know that we are all tired and ready to move on. But the virus is still here,” Reeves said. “It’s still working to infect and kill. We’ve gotten far better at dealing with it, and allowing for life to go on. But we’re not all the way there yet. Keep fighting and protecting the most vulnerable in your life. No matter where you are, please do your best to social distance and wear a mask.”
