As the pandemic worsens, the Maine Office of Tourism is trying to keep better track of visitors to the state through a new online pledge and app, as they try to make sure people follow the rules. Thursday's announcement was a direct response to the larger number of visitors Maine saw through the holiday season, and now state agencies are hoping to streamline the process of health checks for visitors through a website. The website, which can also be found on the Office of Tourism website, has a checklist of what is required of visitors, such as a negative COVID test within 72 hours, or a 10-day quarantine, and gives visitors the option to declare to their hotel or other destinations what route they are choosing to take to visit the state safely.
