In the green phase, we will have looser restrictions, but will continue to take #COVID19 precautions, including:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="White heavy check mark" aria-label="Emoji: White heavy check mark"> reducing building capacity
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="White heavy check mark" aria-label="Emoji: White heavy check mark"> encouraging teleworking
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="White heavy check mark" aria-label="Emoji: White heavy check mark"> limiting visitation in certain high-risk environments
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="White heavy check mark" aria-label="Emoji: White heavy check mark"> preventing large entertainment gatherings

We are able to move forward like this because Pennsylvanians made tremendous sacrifices since the virus emerged.

A @DrexelUniv study reports that in Philly alone, more than 7,000 lives were saved and your actions prevented more than 68,000 people from needing hospitalization.

#COVID19 is still out here. I trust that Pennsylvanians will continue to do what they need to do to keep themselves and others from getting sick.

As a commonwealth, we continue to increase testing every day and are building out contact tracing capacity, as well.

The last two months have been trying.

I thank all of your for your efforts and remember and honor all those we have lost. http://governor.pa.gov/plan-for-pennsylvania">https://governor.pa.gov/plan-for-...
