Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer this morning is expected to announce a form of “shelter in place” order directing residents to stay at home during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic unless they work in an essential service sector.

Whitmer is set to address the public in an 11 a.m. press conference. MIRS subscription news first reported that Whitmer will announce the new order at that time. Sources familiar with the order confirmed that plan to Bridge Magazine.

The order will take effect at midnight, according to one source. It will last two weeks, said another.
