Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) signed a new order Wednesday mandating that people in the state wear masks anywhere in public, ramping up his past guidance regarding face coverings.
The order, signed Wednesday, takes effect immediately and builds on past guidance requiring people to wear masks inside businesses. The move comes amid a rising number of coronavirus cases in the Keystone State.
“This mask-wearing order is essential to stopping the recent increase in COVID-19 cases we have seen in Pennsylvania,” Wolf said in a statement.
