Maine reporting 92 cases of COVID-19 on Monday as state drops mask mandate Share Lucy Hartley, 18, of South Portland outside the Portland Expo after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on May 16, a couple of weeks before the state dropped its mask mandate. Hartley said she is looking forward to seeing "family and friends without the constant underlying stress of COVID." Staff photo by Ben McCanna Maine is reporting 92 cases of COVID-19 on Monday, and two additional deaths. It is the first day the state has reported less than 100 cases in a day since Feb. 15. Numbers from the weekend – in this situation positive cases reported on Monday that occurred on Sunday – tend to be lower than weekday numbers for a variety of reasons, such as because people get tested less on the weekend and labs are less likely to report results on weekends.
