Our prayers are with his wife Kathi and the Garff Family, and all the families that have suffered and are suffering at this time.

We have lost a really great man. Bob Garff touched countless lives and gave so much service to our state, and its people. He was such a positive example to all of us. He leaves a hole in our heart and in the community.

Starting Monday, we will provide daily updates to the public through the two-week Stay Safe, Stay Home period.

Our decisions are data-driven, and I expect all Utahns to follow our Stay Safe, Stay Home directive. By uniting behind these instructions as if our lives depended upon them, we will, in fact, save many lives. #FlattenTheCurve #togetherutah

Data from @UtahDepOfHealth suggests that social distancing measures implemented earlier are making a difference. Still, we need to do more, which is why I'm issuing this directive. We are closely monitoring data to assess what future measures may be necessary. #staysafe #stayhome

Employers: DO NOT require doctor's notes from your employees. If they call in sick with symptoms, or have a family member sick with symptoms, make accommodations for them to stay home. #togetherutah

State parks are only available to residents of the county where the park is located.

You can go outside to exercise and get fresh air — but do not congregate at trailheads or at parks. Maintain cautious social distancing, even when you are outside.

Together, we can #flatten the curve, reduce the strain on hospitals and the healthcare system, and minimize the impact on medical resources for those with highest need. #TogetherUtah

Stay safe. Stay home. This will slow the spread of coronavirus in our communities and save lives.

At-risk individuals (those who are 60 or older, or have a serious underlying condition) should take special care to leave home as little as possible.

Only leave home when you need to. This includes necessary trips like to your workplace, or to obtain food, medicine, or other medical care.

Do not visit friends or family, or hold group gatherings (except for people living in the same household).

We are all in this together. I expect all Utahns to do this part to slow the spread of coronavirus. This means staying home whenever possible.

We are in the throes of a very challenging time. All of us are making difficult adjustments, some big, and some small, to our daily lives. Today I'm issuing a "Stay Safe, Stay Home" directive to all Utahns.
