Under the latest “safer at home” order issued Friday, the daily curfew hours are 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. MDT and businesses can remain open until 9 p.m. MDT daily, tribal officials said Saturday.
The order also includes provisions allowing outdoor “drive-in” gatherings in which people remain in their vehicles, park at least 6 feet from other vehicles and wear masks, officials said.
The tribe on Saturday reported 12 additional confirmed COVID-19 cases and one more death, increasing its pandemic totals to 30,052 cases and 1,246 deaths.
