Delawareans Are Required to Wear Face Coverings In Public Settings
5/8/2020 (Permalink)
Governor John Carney issued a modification to his State of Emergency declaration, requiring Delawareans to wear face coverings in public settings, including in doctor’s offices, grocery stores, convenience stores, pharmacies and on public transportation.
Under Governor Carney’s modified order, businesses must also take certain steps to keep their employees and customers safe.
- Require employees to wear a face covering while working in areas open to the public and in areas where coming within 6 feet of other staff is likely.
- Provide, at the business’ expense, face coverings and hand sanitizer for their employees.
- Deny entry to individuals who do not have a face covering – or if one is not available for them.
- If any business denying entry is providing medication, medical supplies, or food, the business must provide alternate methods of pickup or delivery.
Delawareans are urged to use cloth face coverings and reserve medical-grade masks for use by health care workers and first responders. Medical-grade masks include N95, KN95, surgical, or other masks that would be appropriate for a health care setting.
