If you live in Durham, you will soon be required to wear a mask in public and private spaces where social distancing isn’t possible, including grocery stores, pharmacies and public transit.

Durham County and the City of Durham announced the amendments to their joint stay-at-home order Friday night. The mask requirement goes into effect Monday at midnight.

The updated order also includes new rules for farmers markets that address hand-washing stations and other operations, and showings for real estate sales and rentals.

The updates come as the state has reported more than 6,000 cases of COVID-19, caused by the coronavirus.

Durham County reports 399 cases and four deaths, according to a news release.

Durham’s order says face coverings can include homemade or factory-made masks as well as scarves, T-shirts or towels. People should still maintain social distancing when possible, the release says.

The order says those without face coverings won’t be removed or denied entry to public transit.

“It’s very important that everyone wears a mask, or some sort of facial covering, when out in public, but especially in places where social distancing is difficult,” said Durham Mayor Steve Schewel in a news release. “While it doesn’t take the place of social distancing, wearing facial covering certainly plays a big part in reducing the spread of the virus.”

Earlier this week, Wake County extended its stay-at-home order through April 30 and changed guidelines for retail businesses and faith organizations, The News & Observer reported. The modified order lets any business remain open if it can provide delivery or curbside pickup options. But masks must be provided to customers and employees, and those employees must work 6 feet from each other. Customers will not be allowed to enter the storefront of any non-essential business

Wake County reported 574 cases Friday. The first case in the state was diagnosed March 2 in Wake County.

In the Triangle, Orange and Franklin counties also reported coronavirus-related deaths Friday.

Durham’s amended order also aims to provide guidance for farmers market vendors and includes rules for setting up tents and hand washing stations, operations and displaying food.

The order has provisions for real estate agents and people buying and selling homes with rules for showing homes. Realtors in Durham no longer will be able to hold open houses for units that are occupied. There are also other rules to guide in-person showings for sales and rentals.

The rules for farmers markets and real estate are effective Friday, April 17, at 5 p.m.
