While COVID-19 restrictions are being lifted across the state, Gov. Larry Hogan says that masks are required and social distancing should be maintained.
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland will lift quarantining requirements for residents who travel outside of the state starting Friday, March 12, Gov. Larry Hogan said.
Previously, Marylanders who traveled out-of-state were required to quarantine for a 10-day period when they returned or provide a negative COVID-19 test.
During a news conference Tuesday afternoon, Hogan also announced that he will lift more COVID-19 restrictions starting Friday, March 12 at 5 p.m., including all capacity restrictions on dining (both indoor and outdoor), retail spaces, personal services, religious buildings, indoor recreation, fitness centers and casinos.
While COVID-19 restrictions are being lifted across the state, Hogan emphasized that masks are required and social distancing should be maintained.
“Let’s continue to be smart. We can’t afford to undo all the tremendous progress that we have made together,” Hogan said.
