Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson and Director of Public Health Dr. Brent Roussin announced new COVID-19 restrictions on Monday amid a surge in cases in the province due to the Omicron variant. Roussin said that as of Tuesday, gatherings in public spaces should not exceed 50 percent of capacity or 250 people, whichever is less. Those under the new restrictions include restaurants, licensed venues, food courts, movie theaters, concert halls, and performing arts venues, among others. Roussin added that all attendees must be fully vaccinated or under 12 years of age.
