CONCORD — The state will allow solo artists to return to performing live indoors.
This comes at a time when the state is seeing an increase in the novel coronavirus mostly through community transmission and particularly in the cities of Nashua and Manchester which have more than 120 cases per 100,000 residents over 14 days, said Patricia Tilley, deputy director of the state Division of Public Health on Thursday.
