HARRISBURG — Gov. Tom Wolf announced new COVID-19-mitigation efforts Thursday that ban the play of high school sports for three weeks, indoor dining and restricts retail businesses to 50% capacity.

The restrictions, which go into effect at 12:01 a.m. Saturday and last through 8 a.m. Monday, Jan. 4, are as follows:

• Extracurricular activities at schools will be suspended, including all tournaments and practices.

• No more than 10 people at indoor gatherings and events

• No more than 50 people at outdoor gatherings and events
• Indoor dining at restaurants is suspended, takeout and outdoor dining options permitted

• Indoor operations at theaters, concerts, movies, arcades, casinos, bowling alleys, private clubs and all entertainment or social clubs, gyms and other fitness facilities are suspended

• Indoor retail businesses may operate at 50% capacity.

The announcement was made during a 4 p.m. press conference that included comments from Wolf, health secretary Dr. Rachel Levine and Geisinger President and CEO Dr. Jaewon Ryu.
"We need to take further mitigation actions to stop the spread of COVID-19," Wolf said. "We all hoped it would not come to this. The current state of surge will not allow us to wait. We need to slow the spread right now in order to save lives."

Resist and defy. Drag this man out of his home and tar and feather him, otherwise this will keep continuing.
 
The rules will apply to us but not to him.

He either grows a brain and does not cooperate with the demands to lock everyone and everything down, or he is going to DIE. That is NOT a threat either. It is a Promise. So why do I think he is going to DIE? Very very easy. He is cutting off his own nose despite his face. He shuts us all down and prevents us from producing the essentials, you know, like FOOD, then he will end up with NO PRODUCERS, then he STARVES himself to death.
 
Unless you’re the owners of Taste of Sicily who taunt Wolf and Levine via live-stream just about every day since they handed them their asses in court. Any business in PA who goes along with this deserves what’s coming to them.
 
But what are the incentives in the United States? One could hypothesize about perceived political advantages from having or not having COVID cases and deaths, but we'll put that aside. Let's focus instead on following the money.

And this would be an appropriate thread to bring up the political incentives. Make no mistake, this is political. They want to justify the fact that they mailed out ballots, and they don't want an in-person re-vote.

They will use shutdowns to delay any legal challenges to the vote. "Sorry, can't do it, too dangerous, COVID lockdown in place. Come back after Biden is inaugurated and we promise we'll talk about it."
