Maine is letting in visitors from 5 states. 2 neighbors don't reciprocate.

Gov. Janet Mills is now allowing visitors from five states to come to Maine without requiring a negative coronavirus test or a 14-day quarantine, but not all of those states are as open to Mainers.

The governor in early June allowed New Hampshire and Vermont residents to come to Maine for short visits without tests or quarantines as of June 12. She extended that to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut visitors starting on Friday.

The goal is to stoke the economy by letting in visitors from nearby states with lower rates of the coronavirus, while Mainers visiting states outside those five still must quarantine for 14 days upon returning home.

But there are caveats with Maine’s two closest neighbors, New Hampshire and Vermont. New Hampshire greets Mainers heading south on Interstate 95 with a brightly lit sign reminding them that they have to self-quarantine for 14 days to visit the state.

1. How is this regulated?

2. It's not. I drive to my daughter's house in Maine from Mass. every few days.

I am never without a mask and I stay away from non-family. Nobody cares and the Mass. license plates are plentiful. I think they're afraid hordes of Mass. residents will swarm in if they officially allow it. We're actually doing pretty well here in Mass., finally.
