  Ducey Lifts Capacity Limits, Cites Declining COVID-19 Cases Gov. Doug Ducey on Friday signed an executive order lifting capacity limits for Arizona businesses including restaurants, gyms, water parks, and bars providing food service. Ducey says the decision was made in conjunction with a decline in statewide COVID-19 cases. “Like the rest of the country, Arizona has made its way out of the winter surge of cases,” Ducey said.  Despite a consistent decline, ADHS continues to report infections and related deaths; this morning, health officials reported 783 new cases and no recent deaths. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has categorized bars and indoor dining spaces as “higher risk” areas for virus transmission. Ducey says physical distancing and mask mandates will remain in place for individual businesses, and that the current order will remain effective indefinitely.
