The COVID Project

In plain terms: if you run a plant, the orders reached you at every door. In March 2020, twenty-five States and the District of Columbia closed every factory that was not on their critical-industry lists; the rest sent your office staff home, capped your meetings, screened your workers at the gate and masked your line. When the closure States let you restart between April and June 2020, they did it by order and on written conditions: daily temperature checks, six feet between stations for the whole shift, staggered starts and breaks, no visitors or tours, shutdown for cleaning after every case. Those conditions ran as governor's orders through the summer, hardened into workplace regulations in the winter of 2020-21, and in California, Oregon and Virginia never came off. Your suppliers were closed by the same orders; your customers (dealers, contractors, hospitals, restaurants, schools) were closed or capped by theirs; the border stayed shut to non-essential travel from March 21, 2020 to November 8, 2021; every flight and commute ran under a federal mask order from February 1, 2021; and the trade shows where you sell did not open for more than a year.

This page sets out those orders layer by layer (federal, State, metro, regulator, counterparty), quarter by quarter, and function by function, with the instrument, the date, the operative words and the exhibit in the Library for each. It then takes the fourteen sentences the IRS (the "Service" on this page) uses in its letters and answers each one from the public record. The quarter the Service's letters most often dispute is the third quarter of 2021 (July 1 to September 30, 2021), and the record answers it: on every day of that quarter, orders limiting commerce, travel and group meetings were in force on the borders, the ports, the flights, the commute, the production floors of four States and the hospitals, schools and courts on which every plant depends, and thirty-odd cities and counties and seven States reinstated indoor workplace orders inside it.

Partial suspension, element by element

Every analysis on this site asks the same five questions in the same order. Here they are asked of Manufacturing, from the industry's own record.

  1. The order: issuer, instrument, date, exhibit.The Library holds 46 instruments from this industry's own regulators and sector authorities and 32 organizer notices. The earliest is President (Executive Order 13909), Executive Order 13909, Prioritizing and Allocating Health and Medical Resources to Respond to the Spread of COVID-19 (Mar. 18, 2020) (Ex. SEC-10-001). The fifty-State regime table below names the State orders that reached its premises, State by State, each with its exhibit; the federal layer and the standing duties sit behind them on every day of the six quarters.
  2. The function of the business it reached.The orders named the functions of the business in terms. Three of this industry's 11 function codes: PFproduction floorWHwarehouse, shipping and receivingSCinbound supply, domestic and…. The full key follows this panel, and Function by function reads the orders against each code.
  3. The change it compelled: the operative words.The operative words of Executive Order 13909, Prioritizing and Allocating Health and Medical Resources to Respond to the Spread of COVID-19 (Ex. SEC-10-001): “the Secretary of Health and Human Services... shall use any and all authority available under the Act to determine... the proper nationwide priorities and allocation of all health and medical resources, including controlling the distribution of such materials (including applicable services) in the…” Each record page quotes the operative words in full, with the enforcement provision beside them.
  4. The quarter: in force on which days.Every instrument carries the quarters it was in force. This industry's record runs across all six: 2020 Q2352020 Q3292020 Q4282021 Q1252021 Q2282021 Q321 (the count is this industry's own instruments carrying the quarter). The six quarters sets out what was in force in each, and the third quarter of 2021 is listed instrument by instrument below.
  5. The statute's answer.A partial suspension is a temporary delay, interruption or termination of a portion of the business's operations; the order need only be the but-for cause of it; and nothing in the Suspension Clause asks whether the business was essential, stayed open, could telework or served customers who were themselves under orders (Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States). The test and the method are stated once, for every industry, at Partial suspension, element by element.

The same five steps run through the report the site builds for your own State, metro and quarters.

Function codes

The analysis describes the business as eleven functions, each with a two-letter code that every page of this set uses without variation. An order “reached” a function when its operative words told the business what that part of it could do, when, where, for how many and on what conditions.
