Rochelle shares info on Lamont's easing of COVID-19 restrictions

Friends and Neighbors, In case you missed it on Monday, Governor Lamont announced Connecticut will begin easing certain business restrictions in two phases. The first phase will start on May 1 and pushes the business curfew back from 11 p.m. to 12 a.m. This phase also allows bars to reopen with no table size limits. The second phase happens on May 19 and ends all remaining business restrictions. This means curfews will be lifted and social distancing mandates will be up to businesses. Masks will still be required.

This is promising news that will depend on low rates of infections and increases in vaccination rates. Read the full announcement here.
