Welcome to you, Governor, and I know that a statewide stay at home order was placed into effect for Mississippi just this past Friday at 5 p.m. lot of people asking, Why not sooner?

We made a decision to issue the shelter in place.

We believe shelter in place order should be short term in nature that you cannot expect people to comply if you do it for weeks and weeks and months and months on end.

And so we believe the most important tool that we can use in the shelter in places to do it.

At this point in the cycle, you know, different states, different points in the cycle.

We actually had other measures in place for weeks and weeks before we did the shelter in place, including in ensuring social distancing and outlawing group of 10 or more.

So, Governor, give me a sense of how your state is holding up right now as we're in this pandemic.

Well, we're hanging in there, you know, We've got a lot of people that are scared.

A lot of people who don't have the virus, they're scared.

We've got off literally tens of thousands of Mississippians.

They're scared of death because they lost their jobs in the last 2 to 3 weeks.

So we've got not only a public health crisis, we also have uneconomic crisis on our hands when trying t o come out of this.

I'm curious how concerned you are about the increase in cases that is likely going to happen for your state and specifically about the spread that may happen along some of the more rural areas.

Well, we're very concerned about the spread.

We actually had a approximately 180 new cases overnight, So we're up to 1980 18 cases.

We believe that we could be is his mini is 390.

We're trying to plan for the worst, pray for the best and expect somewhere in between.

So I implemented our measures yesterday to increase our bed capacity in both north and South Mississippi to ensure that we have an adequate number of vets.

It's a challenge across the country is gonna be a challenge Here is Well, yeah, and I'm curious how you feel The federal government and the White House have handled this pen to make so far, especially as it pertains to your state.

Well, we certainly appreciate President Trump's support.

Hey has been diligent in Professor entire Corona Virus Task Force have been communicating with governors every single day throughout this crisis.

We understand in Mississippi that disasters are state managed, locally executed and federally supported.

So it is imperative the governor step up and lean into this in these difficult times.
