Earlier this week, Gov. Hogan announced that the state of Maryland as a whole may begin to enter stage 2 today (Friday, June 5) but the decision to move forward was ultimately up to each jurisdiction. When majority of the state began their re-opening nearly a onth ago, Baltimore City opted to hold back on beginning their re-opening plan due to data showing that they were not yet ready.
"We maintained the stay-at-home order after Gov. (Larry) Hogan had lifted it back on May 13, so we think it would be reckless to jump in to phase two when we haven't fully been in phase one. We'd like to be in phase one, we'd like to be able to review the data as we begin to open more things up and understand if we're going to see trends. It's also possible we could see spikes with the protest, so we want to be able to monitor the data closely, safely and turn to phase one before we move onto phase two," Baltimore Health Commissioner Dr. Letitia Dzirasa said.
