As public health metrics began to show improvement, Gov. Janet Mills recently lifted some safety restrictions, such as the requirement for hotels and motels to accept guests by reservation only. However, there have also been signs that COVID-19 is poised to resurge, and that Maine could be headed for another lockdown.
On Sunday, March 28, the state reported 190 new cases of COVID-19, which was slightly fewer than the numbers confirmed for the previous several days but higher than at the beginning of last week. There have been 50,000 cases to date in Maine, and 736 deaths.

We need a full court press on vaccinating everyone and less fear mongering, lecturing and virtue signaling.
Now that Trump is out of Office, attitudes change.
Two part question requires a two part answer. There may well be a another wave driven by either COVID fatigue or a variant(s). What will drive us to another shutdown is a spike in hospital admissions, patients on ventilators and deaths. Hopefully the large number of vaccinated Mainers will help keep hospitalizations down.
