Maine’s making good progress on preventing the spread of COVID-19, there’s no question about that. The number of new cases, number of people in the hospital with COVID, the rate of people dying with COVID, those are all decreasing.

Hello, this is Governor Janet Mills and thank you for listening.
This post is a transcript of a radio address presented by Governor Janet Mills.
We are ramping up our efforts to deploy every dose of vaccine we get as quickly as possible to reach people in every corner of our state — last week we partnered with Scarborough Downs to open a large community vaccination site, and the new site at Bangor’s Cross Center is up and running and this week we partnered with 24 private pharmacies beginning to vaccinate people all across the state.
