Maine has lifted restrictions on travelers from Massachusetts that had required the visitors to produce a negative coronavirus test or quarantine for two weeks. Gov. Janet Mills says the change went into effect Wednesday. Massachusetts joins New York, New Jersey and all the New England states except Rhode Island on Maine’s exempt list. The governor’s office says the state lifted the restrictions after Massachusetts showed sustained progress in reducing the spread of the virus.
