вЂњIn addition, we still need as many West Australians as possible to get tested.

вЂњWe intend to take the final and sensible step and return to our pre-lockdown life by 12.01 am Monday July 12. вЂњWe intend these transitional restrictions to be in place for just six days from Tuesday until Sunday, assuming everything goes well, and health advice permitting,вЂќ McGowan said. New rules will ban indoor gatherings, close restaurants to indoor dining and limit all retail to 25 capacity, including. Major stadiums, including Optus Stadium and RAC Arena can operate at 50 per cent capacity. New lockdown ordered as coronavirus cases surge in Washington state. Perth and Peel residents must continue to wear masks indoors and outdoors for the next three days. Weddings and funerals will be permitted for up to 150 guests and outdoor gatherings can also take place with up to 150 people without a COVID event plan. There will be a two-square metre capacity rule and 150 patron limit for restaurants, cafes, pubs, bars, casinos, nightclubs, entertainment venues and public venues for seated food and drinks service only. There will be a 30-person limit in all homes for indoor private gatherings and a 150-person limit for outdoor private gatherings. It's time for Washington to start opening up.However, they will remain mandatory for indoor pubic venues, including the workplace, until July 12. However, the data also suggest that massive restrictions aren't necessary to get COVID under control. Together, these data suggest that Washington is doing better than Idaho at reducing COVID sicknesses and deaths. Then, new cases spiked once again at the beginning of 2021, but only now are finally starting to fall.ДЄnother good way to measure the impact of COVID is deaths per capita. There was a small decrease in new COVID cases after the November 16 lockdown was announced, but cases shot back up again by early December. Third, Washington State's lockdown didn't work as intended. Second, despite Idaho's relatively relaxed attitude, the number of new cases per capita is diminishing rapidly. WA has posted a fifth consecutive day of no new community COVID-19 cases on Friday, meaning metropolitan Perth, the Peel region and South West will end their five-day lockdown at 6pm (local time). There are three things worth noting: First, as one might expect, there are more cases per capita in Idaho than Washington. Clark County Washingtons source for local breaking news, business, sports, politics, opinion, entertainment, advertising, real estate, obituaries. My analysis (using data from the COVID Tracking Project) yielded the following: So, how have Washington and Idaho performed during the COVID pandemic? One measure is the number of new coronavirus cases per capita. Although there is no state-wide mask mandate, many businesses and localities (including Boise) do require them. With some exceptions, public and private gatherings are limited to 10 people. According to WalletHub, the state ranks #14, which means it has implemented some of the least restrictions. The criteria for Phases 3 and 4 have yet to be released, which probably means there is no plan to reopen Washington. The criteria are so strict that not a single region in the state has met the criteria to enter Phase 2. The governor's 'plan,' such as there is one, includes four phases of reopening. At this pace, he's going to ban Valentine's Day too.ДЄctually, if the Governor wants to be honest, the State of Washington probably will not fully emerge from restrictions until 2022. Essentially, Governor Inslee banned Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. Indoor gatherings are also banned, which means that you can't invite friends and family members over if they live in another household. The restrictions have completely upended everyday life, making it feel like a lockdown.ДЇor example, indoor dining is banned. Indeed, the governor ordered another round of restrictions beginning on November 16, and we have yet to emerge from it. This has allowed me the unique opportunity to experience two completely different state government responses to the coronavirus pandemic.ДЄccording to WalletHub, Washington has implemented one of the strictest policies in the country, coming in at a rank of #46. I live in the Seattle area, but I spend a lot of time in Boise because of family.
