The day after Pennsylvania announced plans to reverse coronavirus restrictions on April 4, Philadelphia’s top health official said he was not yet ready to commit to the same concessions as the state.
The city will again accept requests for authorization for major outdoor events, but the city’s health commissioner, Dr. Thomas Farley, said he was not yet ready to commit to the same loosening of the COVID-19 restrictions that the state has.
Pennsylvania said it will expand indoor restaurants to 75% next month and allow bar service inside pubs and restaurants without requiring food to be purchased. The 11 pm curfew will also be canceled.
