(Harrisburg, Pa.) During a news conference today to highlight increased efforts to Expand COVID-19 testing availability in Pennsylvania Health Secretary Dr. Rachel Levine was asked during the question and answer session at the end if there were any updated guidelines in regards to the PIAA and guidelines regarding fans at the games. Dr. Levine deferred to Gov. Wolf who then said “The guidance is that we ought to avoid any congregate settings . And that means anything that brings people together is going to help that virus get us and we ought to do everything we can to defeat that virus. So any time we get together for any reason, that’s a problem because it makes it easier for that virus to spread.” As the Governor prepared to leave the podium he said “the recommendation is that we don’t do any sports until January 1st.”
Now this is not an order at this time but could be a sign of things to come in the near future. Stay tuned as Beaver County Radio continues to work on this developing story.
