Operative words
The Vermont Forward Plan uses vaccination rates as the key milestones for transitioning Vermont businesses to more general, universal guidance to prevent the spread of COVID-19; modifying travel guidance; and when gathering size can increase between now and July 4... Three steps lead to July 4, when the State expects to transition universal guidance mandates into recommendations... Universal guidance has five main tenets: Stay home if you're sick, wear a mask, ensure six-foot spaces and uncrowded places, practice good hygiene, and know the travel restrictions.
