- Much of the State mandated requirements for quarantine, etc. have been lifted and many local governments have changed their mandates to suggestions ("shall" v. "should") but it would be worth the time (IMO) to check the City of Fairbanks and Northstar Borough and ???? for any local COVID restrictions that may be imposed by the local government
