Gov. Andy Beshear on Tuesday extended the state’s mandate set to expire on Jan. 2. The mandate will be renewed on that day and be effective for an additional 30 days.
During his daily briefing Tuesday, Beshear reported 2,990 new cases of COVID-19 and 31 more deaths. That brings the totals to 261,492 cases and 2,594 deaths in Kentucky.
Kentucky’s face covering mandate began July 10 and has been extended each month since then.
