Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer extended her stay at home order on Friday, one of the strictest in the nation, to May 15.

The amended order requires people to wear masks or other face coverings while in grocery stores and other indoor spaces if people are medically able to. People who don’t wear coverings will not be penalized, according to the governor.
