Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts is saying a statewide stay at home order is not necessary.
Ricketts announced Monday that he had spoken with Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci, who said Nebraska is fine with its directed health measures. Dr. Fauci is a member of President Trump's Coronavirus Task Force.
The state's enforceable directed health measures include limiting gatherings to ten people or less. As of Monday, Nebraska was one of seven states without a stay at home order for its residents.
