Would 20 hours/week job get counted under OPT employment? Please urgent help!

In USCIS website, it says (https://www.uscis.gov/opt)

Post-completion OPT: You may apply to participate in post-completion OPT after completing your studies. If you are authorized for post-completion OPT, you may work part time (20 hours or less per week) or full time.

But in https://studyinthestates.dhs.gov/sevis-help-hub/student-records/fm-student-employment/f-1-optional-practical-training-opt , it's saying OPT employment needs to be full-time.

Are the rules changed due to COVID ?? Please let me know. Thank you.
