May 5, 2020

Governor Baker announced today that he signed an “Executive Order” mandating that everyone over the age of 2 years old must wear a face covering such as mask or bandana in any public setting where it is difficult to maintain social distancing. This includes all types of retail stores, not just grocery based stores. The order does include some exemptions for individuals with underlining medical conditions where a face covering would impair their ability to breathe. The order goes into full effect on Wednesday, May 6th.
