Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf is asking residents to join him in following new temporary restrictive measures to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
Beginning at 12:01 a.m. Saturday and continuing for a three week period until 8 a.m. on Monday, January 4th, those measures include the suspension of extracurricular school activities as well as the limiting of indoor gatherings or events to no more than 10 people and no more than 50 people for outdoor events.
Wolf also is suspending all indoor dining although take-out and outdoor dining will remain permitted. Indoor operations will also be suspended at a variety of indoor venues such as gyms and casinos. Finally, in person businesses that serve the public such as retail will be limited to 50% capacity.
Wolf states that his goal in taking this action is to stop the increasing spread of the virus, keep healthcare workers and facilities from being overwhelmed, and get safely through the holiday season which will be one step closer to the availability of a vaccine for everyone.
