According to the Alabama Department of Health, about 13,000 people have been tested across the state for COVID-19.

Gov. Ivey, in response to the rapid spread, issued a "stay-at-home" order for Alabamians, three weeks after the first confirmed case was announced in Montgomery County.

The order went into effect 5 p.m. Saturday and will remain in place until April 30.

The order mandates Alabamians stay at home unless they're out to provide essential services, obtain necessary supplies, to attend religious services, to take care of others, to work, to engage in outdoor activity, to seek shelter in unsafe conditions, to travel under court order or to see family members.

Anyone in violation of the order could face a misdemeanor charge, fine, jail time or a combination of those.

"No one is immune from this. It’s no even safe to go to our places of worship," Ivey said during a news conference. "Our fellow Alabamians, I plead with you, I urge you in the strongest way possible. We’ve got to take this order serious otherwise it is a fact people will die."

The order supersedes any previous orders that individual municipalities may have implemented previously.

What are the coronavirus' symptoms?

The coronavirus COVID-19 causes flu- and pneumonia-like illnesses. Many young and relatively healthy patients can recover at home, though some experts caution it is still more dangerous and intense than the average flu for many patients.

But it can be deadly, particularly in those older than 60 or with pre-existing health conditions, and asymptomatic people can still transmit the virus without knowing it, experts say.

It can take two to 14 days for a person to develop symptoms after initial exposure to the virus, according to USA Today. Someone with the virus can begin to have mild symptoms like a dry cough, shortness of breath, fever and headache and muscle pain and tiredness. Think of what it feels like to have the flu.

Alabama doctors and hospital leadership tell the Advertiser that Alabama is not equipped to handle a large influx of cases all at once. Social distancing and isolation measures must be followed, experts say, to "flatten the curve" or spread out the number of infections over a longer period of time. If widespread infections happen too quickly, Alabama will run out of hospital beds and medical equipment.
