The Maine Center for Disease Control is adding another 182 new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday. No new deaths are being reported.

The agency has identified 44,944 cases of the disease since the pandemic began.

Three new vaccination sites are opening this week in southern Maine: at the Portland Expo, the Maine Mall, and a former Marshalls department store in Sanford. Mainers ages 60 and older will be able to get their shots starting Wednesday.

The Maine CDC’s briefing on the pandemic is scheduled for 1 p.m. Tuesday. Maine Public will bring that to you live.
