This weekend will be the last two days of Wales’s 17-day firewall lockdown.
The rules have required that people stay home whenever possible, nonessential retail has been closed, and high schools have closed for those in the ninth grade and up.
Travel restrictions will be lifted after the firewall ends on Monday and pubs, cafes and restaurants will reopen, although there will be a two-hour limit on how long you must spend in pubs.
Meanwhile, the people of two households will be able to bubble again. The new rules will last for two weeks, after which they will be reviewed to see if further changes can be made.
Dr Chris Williams, Incident Director for Response to the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak at Public Health Wales, said: “Public Health Wales will work with the Government of Wales to monitor the effect of the regulations coming in at the end of the current blackout period on November 9, 2020. We support the call for the public to take personal responsibility for their actions and to ensure that we are all doing everything possible to limit the transmission of the coronavirus. “

“As we approach the end of the firewall period in Wales, we remind everyone that this does not mean a return to normalcy.
“The coronavirus is still active in the communities of Wales, so we must all take steps to keep everyone safe and prevent the transmission of the disease.
“This means staying out of other people’s homes, limiting the time and number of people you meet, maintaining social distancing and hand hygiene, working from home if you can, and isolating yourself if you show symptoms of coronavirus or are asked to do so. . do it using contact trackers. “
