10 states with COVID-19 emergency orders intact

States across the U.S. have issued executive orders in response to the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020 and have renewed them at various points based on the spread of the virus and other related factors. 

The orders are designed to support state services and protect public health. Provisions of these orders address policies such as masking, food insecurity, healthcare worker licensure requirements, and healthcare worker vaccination and testing.
