Northumberland County and the Peterborough region will see tighter COVID-19 restrictions starting today.
The area under the jurisdiction of the Haliburton, Kawartha, and Pine Ridge District Health Unit is now in the “yellow” restriction level, due to increasing numbers of coronavirus infections.
The change to “yellow” includes limiting events and social gatherings to 10 people indoors and 25 outdoors, while organized public events are limited to 50 people indoors and 100 outdoors.
Hastings and Prince Edward counties have been in the “yellow” zone for the past week.
