Notes

Mississippi Today reported that 'leaving the state of emergency order in place is essential to propping up several COVID-19 response and relief efforts' (search-result summary). The Nov. 11, 2021 report (MS-055) confirms the Governor 'reversed course' on the announced Aug. 15 expiry 'as the delta variant pushed the state's hospital system to' its limits.
