Two days ago (6 days into the planned 14 day Phase One of reopening) we had the largest single day of positive test results thus far.  The Governor has stated face masks will most likely become mandatory across the Commonwealth starting Tuesday, and that it looks unlikely we will move into Phase Two, nor is it guaranteed we will remain in Phase One if the trend continues.

Many people haven't been taking it seriously from the get go. Despite having a Stay At Home order, people have been out and about and traveling all over the place with the attitude of "I don't have symptoms, so I shouldn't have to".
