Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said Wednesday that the state’s stay-at-home order originally issued to curb the transmission of the CCP virus, will be lifted beginning Friday at 5 p.m, as the state shifts to a safer-at-home order.

“The fight against this deadly disease is far from over,” Hogan said at a press briefing. “But because of incredible courage you have shown and the extraordinary sacrifices you have made, Maryland, and our nation, can now at least begin to slowly recover.”
