From Saturday, February 5, the Karnataka Government has eased down Covid restriction and has allowed movie theatres, gyms, and swimming pools to operate at 100% capacity. While speaking to reporters, Karnataka Health Minister K Sudhakar made this announcement on Friday.
He said, “Movie theatres, gyms, yoga centers, swimming pools, all of these were allowed to have 50% occupancy. Today, a meeting was convened by the Chief Minister with the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). In January there was a hospitalization rate of 5-6% but now it has been reduced to just 2%. In order to aid those involved in the film industry, we have decided that from Saturday, 100% occupancy will be allowed.”
