Michigan’s coronavirus executive orders are gone. Here are the health orders put in their place.

Gretchen Whitmer’s orders were immediately struck down by their ruling – instead three or four weeks later like Whitmer said – the MDHHS orders are the new law of the land. “As we work with the governor, we will assess whether to extend or change the orders,” MDHHS spokesperson Lynn Sutfin said in an email. Many of the executive orders are unaddressed by the MDHHS orders. More MDHHS orders could be coming in the coming days, Sutfin said.
