Operative words
the Maine Center for Disease Control (Maine CDC) now advises that, in light of decreasing COVID-19 case counts and positivity rates, and increasing rates of vaccination in Maine and nationally, indoor gathering limits and in-store customer limits are no longer necessary to protect the public health... 1. Indoor gathering limits and in-store customer limits are amended as follows: a. From March 26, 2021 through May 23, 2021: 50% of permitted occupancy, 5 persons per 1,000 sq. ft., or 50 persons, whichever is greatest; b. May 24, 2021 and thereafter: 100% of permitted capacity.
