As anyone who needs a haircut can tell you, it’s tempting to head to Georgia as the state has lifted many of its coronavirus restrictions.

If you do, take extra care you don’t come in contact with the virus and bring it back with you.

“I want to remind people that the 6 feet distance should be maintained and that respiratory hygiene, like cover the cough, washing the hands, staying at home if you’re sick. If you are sick, don’t go to Georgia,” Alabama Department of Public Health’s Dr. Karen Landers said recently.

You should take extra care if you’re coming into close contact with someone, such as getting a haircut.

“I do think it is important to consider strongly the use of cloth mask face coverings in these instances,” Dr. Landers said.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp announced last week he was allowing gyms, bowling alleys, tattoo parlors, barber and beauty shops, nail salons, spas and massage therapists to reopen, a move that apparently surprised even the White House. The businesses are required to screen workers for illness, limit the number of people in a store, practice social distancing and do regular sanitation.

Theaters, social clubs and dine-in service at restaurants reopened Monday. Bars, nightclubs, theaters and amusement parks remain closed but conditions are being monitored for a reopening of those facilities.

While Georgia is among the first to reopen, other states are following. Tennessee is set to reopen businesses Monday while Texas is reopening restaurants, malls and retail stores with limited occupancy on Friday. Barbershops, salons, gyms and bars are expected to re-open no later than mid-May.

Not every Southeastern state is moving quickly with reopening plans. Both Louisiana and South Carolina have extended their shutdown orders through mid-May.
