Indiana will not be moving to Stage 5 of its “Back on Track” plan on July 4th Gov. Holcomb announced Wednesday. Instead, according to a new Executive Order, a “Stage 4.5” will hold for the next two weeks.
Holcomb began Wednesday’s briefing by announcing that there’s been an “uptick” in the state’s COVID-19 cases.
The last stage of the reopening plan, Stage 5, was previously projected to go into effect on the Fourth of July. Holcomb declared the state will instead move to a “cautious Stage 4.5.”
He said gatherings of up to 250 will remain in place for at least 2 weeks. Conventions may resume as long as they follow previous guidance. Holcomb said the state will monitor this step for the next two weeks.
