“We are very concerned with the rate of infection in our area,” Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy said. “We are trending in the wrong direction in terms of hospitalization and positive cases, and based on recommendations from community healthcare and public health officials, hosting fans at the stadium for games is not advisable at this time.”
According to a news release, fans will only be allowed into the stadium if the area sees an improvement in the rate of community infection and hospitalizations.
“We urge everyone to wear masks, socially distance and practice proper hand hygiene,” Murphy said. “When watching our games, please limit the people with whom you cheer to your small circle of family or close friends.”
