WILL THERE BE A ROLLBACK? Still hundreds a day. But the 812 new COVID-19 cases reported Monday in Massachusetts is the smallest single-day total since early last November. With that as backdrop, Gov. Charlie Baker continued this week to raise expectations that he will roll back on restrictions.
âStay tuned," he said Monday, when asked what he has in mind, in light of the fact that itâs been reported the Biden administration may relax outdoor mask use requirements.
"We're going to make some additional announcements here in Massachusetts this week," Baker said. He declined to say more. CNN reported Monday that President Joe Biden plans to update the federal government's mask policy on Tuesday.
