As the New Year has gone on, the state of public health in Massachusetts has started to improve greatly. Because of this, Mayor Walsh announced on Monday, February 8th, the state has adjusted the 25% capacity restriction on local businesses. Certain businesses now are able to operate at a 40% capacity.
Limits for gatherings still remain at a maximum of 10 people allowed at an indoor gathering and 25 people for outdoor gatherings. In addition, there are certain businesses whose capacity remains unchanged. You can go online to Boston.gov to view how the new capacity limits will affect each industry.
