Vanderburgh has been a blue county for two weeks Now what?

EVANSVILLE, Ind.  The second week of minimal coronavirus spread in the area means that Vanderburgh County finds itself in the blue once again. The Indiana State Department of Health publishes a color-coded map each week, with four different colors each denoting a particular severity of the outbreak and in turn certain restrictions. When a county remains at a lower level for two weeks in a row, those restrictions are allowed to loosen. That s the situation Vanderburgh County found itself in Wednesday. None of the surrounding counties have reached that advisory level. The key change is that venues can now operate at 100% capacity, provided that social distancing can be maintained. The recommended attendance limit for social gatherings and events is 250.
