Also in Nebraska, given the expansion of testing availability throughout the state and decreased volume of specimens submitted to Test Nebraska, the Department of Health and Human Services announced that Test Nebraska will no longer be collecting COVID-19 specimens after July 18.
Finally in Nebraska, Gov. Pete Ricketts (R) announced the end of the coronavirus state of emergency at 11:59 p.m. on June 30. The Governor issued Executive Order (EO) 21-09 to rescind pandemic-related executive orders. With a few exceptions, the coronavirus executive orders will expire on July 30, which is thirty days after the state of emergency ends.
