Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson on Thursday issued an order requiring residents to wear face masks starting Monday.
According to the order all people must where a mask in all indoor and outdoor environments where they are exposed to non-household members and a distance of 6 feet or more cannot be assured.
People younger than 10 years of age and those with medical conditions are exempt.
According to Hutchinson the mask order is enforceable with a misdemeanor fine of $100 to $500 for anyone who refuses to wear a mask that covers the nose and the mouth.
