Finally, the news has arrived we were eagerly waiting for? Well, not exactly but a good start to say the least.
With more people being vaccinated and the daily infection cases reported constantly below one thousand the province feels confident to relax the COVID-19 gathering rules.
This Friday, June 11, 2021, the province of Ontario is entering into Step-1 of the roadmap to opening up businesses and gatherings.
In the Step-1, starting from Friday, the following are the key points:
- outdoor gatherings of up to 10 people
- outdoor dining with up to four people per table
- non-essential retail at 15% capacity
- Places of worship can operate on 15% of indoor gatherings and any number of outdoors with social distancing protocols Here is some more information from the province’s website:
Step 2
Expanding access to indoor settings, with restrictions, including where there are larger numbers of people and where face coverings can’t always be worn. This includes:
- indoor sports and recreational fitness
- indoor dining
- museums, art galleries and libraries
- casinos and bingo halls with capacity limits
Moving through the steps
The province will remain at each step for at least 21 days to evaluate any impacts on key public health and health system indicators. It can take up to two weeks for COVID-19covid 19 vaccinations to offer protection against the virus.
The province will remain in Step 1 for at least 21 days to evaluate any impacts on key public health and health system indicators.
If at the end of the 21 days the province has met the following vaccination thresholds, and there are continued improvements in other key public health and health system indicators, the province may move to the next step of the roadmap:
- Step 1: 60% of adults vaccinated with one dose
- Step 2: 70% of adults vaccinated with one dose and 20% vaccinated with two doses
- Step 3: 70 to 80% of adults vaccinated with one dose and 25% vaccinated with two doses“
