Dr. Henry noted that these must be the same 10 people, so you need to keep it consistent. 

She said that there have been no updates to indoor gathering rules, therefore you can't visit with anyone outside your household while inside. 

Dr. Henry also mentioned that no other restrictions are being eased and we must continue to follow public health protocols.
