Citing a decrease in the number of cases and hospitalizations and the ongoing distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) announced yesterday that casinos will no longer need to adhere to occupancy restraints. State orders have curbed casino capacity to 50 percent since December.
As we’ve marked one year of grappling with this deadly virus, many of us have been recalling our lasts. The last time we ate inside of a restaurant. The last time we celebrated a big occasion with family and friends,” Hogan said.
