PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — Rhode Island Gov. PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — The R.I. Department of Health reported 84 new COVID-19 cases in Rhode Island on Wednesday, as Gov. Raimondo, 30, is keeping her name. PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Officials on Block Island have suspended all outdoor entertainment until the end of summer as Gov.
