Non-Essential Mass. Businesses To Remain Closed Until May 18

Non-essential businesses in Massachusetts will remain closed until at least May 18.

Gov. Charlie Baker announced Tuesday that he's extending the business closure order, along with the stay-at-home advisory for residents, and a ban on gatherings of more than 10 people — all had been scheduled to end next Monday.

Joining Morning Edition to discuss this, along with other local coronavirus news was reporter Quincy Walters.
