Massachusetts Adds 3 States To COVID-19 Travel Order Exempt List

BOSTON (CBS) — Three more states were added to the Massachusetts COVID-19 travel order exempt list as of Saturday. They are Missouri, Oregon, and Washington.

Travelers from those states will not need to quarantine or provide a negative test upon arrival.

States are considered lower-risk when their positive test rates are below 5% and daily cases per 100,000 are below 10.

Non-exempt travelers need to quarantine for 10 days upon arriving in Massachusetts or provide a negative test taken within 72 hours prior to their arrival. They can also test once in Massachusetts, but need to quarantine until a negative test comes back.

Failure to fill out a Travel Form and comply with quarantine regulations may result in a $500 fine per day.

Hawaii and Puerto Rico were already on the exempt list.
