2019 Novel Coronavirus
On March 13, Gov. Phil Scott called on Vermonters to help protect our most vulnerable – the elderly and the chronically ill – and announced several mitigation strategies to help slow the spread of the new coronavirus. They include restricting visitor access at long-term care facilities, prohibiting large, non-essential gatherings of more than 250 people and suspending out-of-state travel for state employees. Gov. Scott declared a state of emergency to help ensure Vermont has all the necessary resources to respond to this evolving threat. Read the executive orders.
