Although Gov. Chris Sununu has shown little fondness for the term, the first phase of New Hampshire’s reopening appears to be nearing an end.

“I remember when we limited groups of 10 and I thought, ‘How the heck are we going to do that?’ Well we did it, and it would be great to get out of it, as it is one of the most restrictive things we have done as a state,” Sununu said.

Have a plan in case you get sick:

Stay in touch with others by phone or email. You may need to ask for help from friends, family, neighbors, community health workers, etc. if you become sick.
