April 20, 2020: By the end of last week, a total of 43 states had issued stay-at-home orders for their residents.

Over the next two weeks, those orders are scheduled to expire in 26 states:

• Six are set to end between April 20 and 26 (Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Indiana, Mississippi, and Montana).
• Twenty are set to end between April 27 and May 3 (Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Texas).

However, it remains possible that those stay-at-home orders will be extended. Since the orders were initially issued, 18 states have revised the end date. Missouri, New York, and Wisconsin were the latest to do so, all announcing extensions of their shutdown orders on April 16.^[1][2][3]

Seven states have issued stay-at-home orders with no specified end date: California, Kentucky, Maryland, New Jersey, Oregon, South Carolina, and West Virginia.
