PORTLAND, Maine (AP) Maine has extended its state of civil emergency, and is requiring masks in more places.

Democratic Gov. Janet Mills said Wednesday that she extended the state of emergency until Aug. 6. Mills has said the state of emergency allows the state’s government to “deploy all available resources to protect the health and safety of Maine people and to respond quickly and as-needed to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

The governor also issued an executive order Wednesday requiring many businesses to enforce mask rules.

Maine has reported more than 3,400 cases of the virus.
