Gov. Brad Little extended his stay-home order to April 30 during a press conference this morning.

“We’ll continue to fight the coronavirus together and I appreciate your widespread support of your neighbors and your communities,” he said.

Little said efforts to flatten the curve on the virus’s impact on the state’s health care systems are working, but that more needs to be done.

He has made one big change to the original order: retail businesses considered nonessential, but who can provide curbside service or delivery, and that doesn't violate the law or ignore social distancing and hygiene mandates, can reopen immediately.

He also announced that most out-of-state visitors will be required to self-quarantine for two weeks after arrival. People who live in Idaho and work in another state, or live in another state but work in Idaho, will not be required to self-quarantine.

Little said many previously identified nonessential businesses should prepare to re-open in stages after April 30, though he wouldn’t guarantee the order will expire April 30.

“Our goal is for most businesses to open after the end of the month, with the understanding that it may not be possible if there’s an upward trend in severe COVID-19 cases in Idaho between now and then,” he said.
