MAINE PUBLIC • June 17, 2020
For more than a week, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont have been encouraging travel around northern New England as a step toward reviving their tourism-dependent economies that have been suppressed by the pandemic. But where exactly you hail from can make a big difference. Visitors from New Hampshire and Vermont can stay in Maine without any sort of quarantine. New Hampshire is not making distinctions among travelers from northern and southern New England, or anywhere else. Travelers from counties in New England and New York where infection rates are below 400 per million people are free to visit Vermont without restriction. But those from counties where infection rates are higher must follow specific quarantine or testing rules.
