(Richmond, VA) – While no exact date has been given for when phase three of “Forward Virginia” Governor Ralph Northam did lay out the guidelines of what residents of the Commonwealth can expect when that date does finally arrive.  While some states are seeing an uptick in cases Virginia’s metrics still continue the downward trend the Governor has been looking for as he moves the state through the stages of reopening fully.

 

“Our Phase Three guidelines will help Virginia families and businesses plan for what the next stage of easing public health restrictions will look like in our Commonwealth,” said Governor Northam. “While we may not have the same spike in infections that many states are seeing right now, Virginians need to remain cautious and do the things that we know reduce transmission: wear a face covering, maintain physical distance, and stay home if you are high-risk or experience COVID-19 symptoms. This virus is still with us, and we must continue to adapt our lives around it and ensure we are keeping our vulnerable communities safe.”

 

During his press conference the Governor said the earliest residents could expect phase 3 to begin is June 26th.  The list of changes from phase 2 to phase three is below:
