Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan Holds His Daily Press Conference On State's COVID-19 Response

ANNAPOLIS, MD—Governor Larry Hogan announced today that Maryland will begin to move into Stage Three of the reopening process. This stage will be gradual and allows individual jurisdictions to make decisions regarding the timing of reopenings.

Governor Hogan said, “As we move into this third and final stage of our recovery, I want to sincerely thank our doctors, nurses, and public health officials, our small business community, and, most importantly, the people of Maryland who have pulled together over the last five months to respond to this unprecedented challenge with incredible courage and perseverance,” said Governor Hogan. “It is thanks to all of you that we have crushed the curve and saved lives, and that our state response to this global pandemic continues to serve as an example for the rest of the nation.”

The third stage will begin this Friday September 4th at 5pm.

Stage three includes the following:

  • INDOOR THEATERS. Indoor theaters where live performances occur or motion pictures are shown may open to the general public at 50% capacity, or 100 people per auditorium—whichever is less—with appropriate health and safety protocols in place.
  • OUTDOOR VENUES. Outdoor venues where live performances occur or motion pictures are shown outdoors may open to the general public at 50% capacity, or 250 people—whichever is less—with appropriate health and safety protocols in place.
  • RETAIL AND RELIGIOUS FACILITIES. Capacity for retail establishments and religious facilities may increase from 50 to 75 percent.
