Utah, in break with states tightening coronavirus restrictions ahead of Thanksgiving, relaxes gathering limits
Utah Gov. Gary Herbert lifted some of his state's most severe coronavirus-related restrictions ahead of Thanksgiving, including an order that limited social gatherings to only those within a certain household, in a break from what other governors have been doing ahead of the holiday. Herbert's new order, after limiting social gatherings to just a single household for the past two weeks and not specifically exempting private residences, included a specific provision saying the health order does not apply to noncommercial gatherings at private residences.
