The order is in effect from March 25 to April 7. The next two weeks are critical if we are to slow the spread of COVID-19, and we must slow the spread.

Since then the number of positive cases has increased on a near daily basis, escalating as the capacity to test has grown. As of this morning, the number of tests completed in Indiana is 1,960, the number of positive cases is 259 and 7 deaths have been reported.

State employees will work remotely whenever possible and continue to provide core functions online and by phone. All public safety functions will continue.

The state, in conjunction with the city and all hospital systems in Marion County, has activated a comprehensive emergency operations center to maximize hospital capacity and provide joint coordination. The center is charged with tracking the inventory of all hospital beds, supplies and personnel as the number of COVID-19 patients grows.
