Virginia’s public gathering limits, daily curfews, face mask requirements and other COVID-19 restrictions will stay in place until the end of February, drawing concern from some members of the business community.
Gov. Ralph Northam announced Wednesday he issued Executive Order 72, which extends and slightly modifies the state restrictions. Under the new restrictions, face masks will be required in not only indoor settings but also in any outdoor setting when a person cannot remain 6 feet away from other people.
Under the order, all Virginians are subject to a daily curfew between midnight and 5 a.m., which means they are required to stay in their homes during that time. The order provides for a few exceptions, including those who need to commute to or from work and those who are seeking medical attention.
