The Yankton Sioux Tribe remains closed through March 20 following a case of the coronavirus on its homelands in South Dakota.

The tribe shut down operations last week after the Indian Health Service confirmed the case. The state had only said the patient was from Charles Mix County. The federal agency later informed Indian Country about the incident.

The tribe also has declared a state of emergency.
