The list of primarily ‘Red’ states con times to grow by the day…
We’ll wait for the spikes upward in virus infections and see how high they go, if they do, as expected…
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) on Monday will announce the reopening of public beaches and retail stores that had been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Post and Courier reported.
The impending restriction rollbacks follow McMaster’s announcement that access to public boat ramps and landings was reinstated on Friday.
Trey Walker, the governor’s chief of staff, told the paper that the beaches as well as furniture, jewelry and clothing stores will all be reopened for business on Tuesday.
Beaches and retail stores have been closed for just over two weeks in the Palmetto State as it tried to curb the spread of the virus.
Walker told The Post and Courier that infection rates dropped enough to make easing restrictions feasible.
The paper noted that social distancing will still be enforced on the state’s beaches. The state has more than 4,000 confirmed cases of the virus and 116 deaths, according to data compiled by The New York Times….
Note …
The reopening Governor’s are gonna be seen as ‘loyal’ to Trump and can expect more help from the Fed’s then Blue state ones…

Actually McMaster Order has a big loophole.
Each individual beach town can decide if they wish to reopen.Most probably won’t.
This is really for Myrtle Beach.Obviously they will.

Oh great; now all those folks who’ll party in Myrtle Beach can go home and plague the rest of the nation.

As I predicted earlier,All the lower coastal beaches near Charleston jointly announced that they will not reopen .

The others?
ALL the others are closed?

I have no information as to Myrtle Beach and the surrounding beaches farther up the coast.
Since they are more tourist oriented and golfers favorites ,I would imagine they will open back up as soon as they can.

Thanks Jack….
