COVID-19 Restrictions Eased in Pennsylvania
Governor Tom Wolf has announced the ease of some restrictions that were set in place in Pennsylvania.
Effective statewide today, I am revising and lifting some COVID-19 mitigation restrictions in Pennsylvania.

First, I am revising maximum occupancy limits for both indoor and outdoor events. Second, I am eliminating out-of-state travel restrictions.
Effective as of Monday, March 1 out of state travel restrictions are being lifted. Outdoor events are limited to 20% maximum occupancy and indoor events are limited to 15% maximum occupancy.
Wolf said the new occupancy limits are permitted only if attendees and workers can keep six feet of physical distance between them.
The city of Philadelphia also eased some of their restrictions and announced fans would be allowed to attend sporting events.
