Today Governor Herbert announced he is moving Provo and Orem back to the Orange “Moderate Risk” restriction level due to the recent surge in COVID-19 cases. While disappointing news, this announcement can and should serve as a community rallying cry to more vigilantly follow health guidelines so we can quickly move back to Yellow to protect our local economy from further damage.
Provo City now begins the task of determining additional restrictions required by Governor Herbert’s directive and will be communicating these changes to our citizens.
We appreciate the past and continuing efforts of our community to be compliant with safety guidelines. We hope the Governor’s announcement is not a cause of discouragement to our citizens and business owners, but rather becomes an incentive to show how effective we can be when we fight COVID-19 together.
