Florida and Texas Easing Some Coronavirus Restrictions

Florida and Texas are surging to the forefront of states easing quarantine restrictions, with Florida opening Jacksonville beaches April 17 and Texas opening state parks.

In Texas, doctors will also be allowed to reschedule diagnostic tests and some surgeries that had been put on hold. Iowa signaled they would be opening businesses, a little at a time, in phases. Meanwhile, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer kept her foot on the brakes, saying she was waiting until May 1 to decide whether to let up on restrictions there.
