Finally! The SC Governor announced today that starting Monday, March 1st, that the requirements for permission slips from the Dept. of Commerce needed to have gatherings of more than 250 people have been lifted. Also, restaurants and bars serving alcohol can basically go back to pre-Covid days as far as selling it with no curfew hours and can sell past 11 pm. This is great news for many small businesses.
This is to say that mask mandates and social distancing are still in effect until there's more herd immunity or whatever, so there may be some limitations on the amount of people concentrations, but regardless, it's putting more control back in South Carolinian's hands. Responsibility where it belongs. Our governor has always been a proponent of opening the state as much as possible ASAP.
It may have something to do with confirmed Covid cases across the state dropping by over 70% in the last month. We had 26 confirmed cases in our county in one day at last count. We're still not getting the vaccines at the rate as originally promised, but that's probably another story altogether.
Hopefully whatever state your in is heading toward more open businesses. Who knows what's ahead, but it's one step further into whatever we used to call normal.
