Coronavirus: Quebec to allow gyms in COVID-19 red zones to reopen as of the end of March | FULL

Quebec is loosening a number of COVID-19 public health restrictions for sports and physical training both indoors and outdoors starting March 26.

Isabelle Charest, the minister responsible for sports, said Friday the government is taking a gradual approach so as not to reverse any progress made in the last few weeks. She described it as a first phase of deconfinement.

“The situation is still fragile,” she told reporters, adding that certain measures such as physical distancing must be maintained.

Under the plan, all indoor facilities — including gyms — can reopen in designated red zones such as Montreal in two weeks. However, training can only be done in pairs or with people from the same household when indoors.
