Milwaukee imposes new restrictions as COVID-19 increases

MILWAUKEE – The city of Milwaukee will impose new restrictions on public meetings as instances of coronavirus in the state increase.

The new fitness ordinance that takes effect on Thursday requires meetings to be limited to 25% of a site’s capacity and reduce the maximum number of others on an indoor occasion to 10 other people. The maximum number of meetings is 25 other people.

Religious and political occasions are limited to a hundred other people who will have to sit down.

The occupation of restaurants and bars is limited to 25% for institutions that do have a CITY-approved COVID-19 security plan. Dance floors are prohibited.

Sports are only allowed inside or within the school, unless there is a city-approved plan.

“Team and contact sports that come with outdoor competitions from team competitions require a protection plan that will have to be presented through groups or the league and approved through the Milwaukee City Department of Health,” the order says. “These plans will have to come with at least regular COVID-19 testing of players and staff at least every 3 days. In addition, COVID-19 testing of the opposing team must not take position more than 3 days before the competition. . »

Spectators are allowed.

The city recorded a total of 27,614 positive cases of COVID-19 and three hundred deaths, according to its online control panel. State fitness officials reported Monday that more than 200,000 other people have contracted coronaviruses in Wisconsin since the pandemic began in March, as the virus continued to increase across the state.
