Keeping track of both city and state pandemic guidelines can give anyone a headache. So we’re breaking them down for you with an overview of what’s allowed at restaurants, concert venues, sporting games, and beyond.
Pennsylvania is currently in the green phase, meaning all businesses can reopen while following coronavirus mitigation requirements. Gov. Wolf’s administration supports local officials who choose to maintain additional restrictions, and Philly has issued its own set of guidelines from the Philadelphia Department of Public Health.
Although many earlier restrictions have been lifted, the risk of the coronavirus remains. Experts advise continued caution. Guidelines are also expected to continuously evolve. Check back for updates, and for the latest information, COVID-19 case numbers, and full details on rules and regulations, visit phila.gov/programs/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19.
