INDIANAPOLIS – Gov. Eric J. Holcomb recently signed Executive Order 21-02 to adjust the targeted restrictions for counties that have high levels of COVID-19.
He also signed Executive Order 21-03 to extend the public health emergency an additional 30 days.
The Indiana Department of Health has established a color-coded county map that measures weekly cases per 100,000 residents and the seven-day positivity rate for all tests completed. Each county is assigned a color based on the average scores for the two metrics. Restrictions are assigned based on the map, which is updated each Wednesday at www.coronavirus.in.gov.
Face coverings are required for all Hoosiers. Businesses of all types are required to place clearly visible signs at their public and employee entrances notifying all that face coverings are required.
All customers in restaurants and bars are required to be seated. Tables, counters, or other seating arrangements must be spaced six feet apart.
Executive Order 21-02 runs until Sunday, Feb. 28. Local governments may impose more restrictive guidelines.
