Governor Charlie Baker said Thursday that the state on Monday will move to Phase 3, Step 2 of its economic reopening plan amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

“That will allow indoor performance venues and indoor recreational activities to reopen and capacity limits across all sectors will increase to 50 percent,” Baker said during a briefing in Salem. “Massachusetts will then move to Step 1, Phase 4 of [the] reopening plan, effective March 22, as long as the public health data continues to get better."
