On May 19, all other restrictions will end. That includes
social-distancing mandates, no gathering size limitations and movie theaters
can open at 100%.
“I think you see May 1 there's going to be a little more
outside fun, which I appreciate as long as we're careful, and on May 19 – we’re
back to our new normal,” said the governor.
The governor says the state's Health Department will issue
guidelines, but it will be up to the businesses to use their discretion on
their own rules.
So far, 61% of all adults in Connecticut have received at
least one COVID-19 vaccine dose.
