Governor: 21 Days To Stay Home And Healthy


Gov. Pete Ricketts has proclaimed April 10-30, 2020 as “21 Days to Stay Home and Stay Healthy in Nebraska.” 

Infectious disease experts project that the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak will be at or near its peak in Nebraska by the end of April. For the next three weeks, the governor is urging Nebraskans to avoid non-essential errands and to limit social gatherings in an effort to prevent the spread of the virus.

Gov. Ricketts: Six Rules to Keep Nebraska Healthy
  1. Stay home.  No non-essential errands and no social gatherings.  Respect the ten-person limit.
  2. Socially distance your work.  Work from home or use the six-foot rule as much as possible in the workplace.
  3. Shop alone and only shop once a week.  Do not take family with you.
  4. Help kids follow social distancing.  Play at home.  No group sports.  And no playgrounds.
  5. Help seniors stay at home by shopping for them.  Do not visit long-term care facilities.
  6. Exercise daily at home or with an appropriately socially-distanced activity.
    • Nebraskans have been doing a great job of complying with our social distancing directives.
    • These six rules will unite Nebraskans in our shared goal of slowing the spread of the virus as we enter its peak period.
