As COVID-19 continues to spread across Connecticut yet again, Gov. Ned Lamont announced Monday that he plans to pull the entire state from the third phase of reopening back to a modified version of the second phase.
“We are putting in these restrictions on a statewide basis now to make sure we don’t have to do more severe things later," Lamont said at a Monday afternoon briefing.
When the changes go into effect on Friday, restaurants will be required to scale back their maximum indoor capacity from 75% to 50%, and both restaurants and entertainment venues will be required to close by 9:30 p.
