Dubois County is now at an ORANGE advisory level for COVID-19.
This means that:
- The overall size of a social gathering or event is strongly recommended to be limited to 50 people.
- If the venue owners, hosts or organizers have a written safety plan submitted to the local health department, social gatherings and events are limited to 25 percent of a facility capacity.
The county’s weekly score was also updated to YELLOW on Wednesday. It will remain in the ORANGE advisory level requirements.
Whenever a county’s metric/score rises to a higher color category, that county is moved to a more restrictive advisory level. When a county meets the metric/score of a less restrictive color category, it must remain in the less restrictive color for two consecutive weeks to be allowed to move down to the lower advisory level.
For this reason, a county’s advisory level can be different than its current weekly score.
