State employees at congregate facilities must be fully vaccinated by Oct. 4 unless they qualify for an exemption, such as a medical condition or religious belief. As of Aug. 30, individuals 2 and up must wear a mask in indoor public places, such as restaurants, gyms and grocery stores. The mandate applies regardless of vaccination status.

Louisiana: Fully reopened. Gov. John Bel Edwards (D) extended a mask mandate until Sept. 29.

Maryland: Fully reopened, some counties have mask mandates. The health department ordered state employees who work in congregate settings to be vaccinated by Sept. 1 or submit to regular testing. A similar mandate applies to nursing home and hospital employees.

Massachusetts: Fully reopened. Gov. Charlie Baker (R) announced long-term care providers and home care workers are among those who must be vaccinated by Oct. 31.

Mississippi: Fully reopened. Under the direction of Gov. Tate Reeves, the health department ordered individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 to self-quarantine for 10 days from the onset of symptoms or the date of a positive test if asymptomatic. The order applies regardless of vaccination status. The individual should quarantine at home, refuse visitors, and, if possible, use a separate bathroom from others in the house. Failure to comply could result in a fine of up to $5,000, five years in prison or both.
