Manitoba is extending the public health orders that were in effect for the Victoria Day long weekend.
The restrictions were set to expire at 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday, May 26th, but will remain in effect for the rest of the week.
The following health orders will remain in effect until May 29th at 12:01 a.m.:
• indoor public gatherings are not permitted and visitors are not permitted on private property, except in certain circumstances
• outdoor gatherings with anyone from outside a household are not allowed and this applies to all recreation spaces including playgrounds, golf courses, parks, and sports fields
• retail businesses may only operate at 10 percent capacity or 100 customers, whichever is fewer, and only one person per household will be allowed to enter a business, with some exceptions, such as a single parent with children or someone who requires a caregiver
• many businesses and organizations will remain closed for in-person service including gyms and fitness clubs, restaurants and bars, personal service businesses, museums, galleries, and libraries
The Public Health Act states that Manitobans who live alone can still designate one person to have at their residence, and they may also attend that person's residence.
This is in addition to a variety of health orders that are in effect. To see a full list of health orders, click here.
