Household contacts must be limited to a maximum of a steady 10 individuals.
Dining-in is permitted in restaurants, but they must operate at 50 per cent capacity and request proof-of-vaccination.
Spas, salons will remain open but 50 per cent capacity and proof of vaccination.
Practices will continue, but games are cancelled.
Employees are encouraged to work from home.
