23 alert originators (COGs) have mentioned "masks" in 31 IPAWS messages 
through July 15, 2020.

Reeves County, Texas was the earliest to mention "masks" on April 15, 2020.

New Mexico (7/3/2020) and Michigan (4/24/2020 and 7/13/2020) were the only 
states to issue state-wide IPAWS messages mentioning "masks" through
July 15, 2020.  I believe Colorado will also issue a state-wide IPAWS 
today.
