California, the first US state to enact a stay-at-home order just under 15 months ago, also celebrated its 'reopening day' today by lifting almost all pandemic-related social distancing and capacity limits.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has said he is lifting all state-mandated coronavirus restrictions after reporting that 70% of New York adults have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine.

California, the first US state to enact a stay-at-home order just under 15 months ago, also celebrated its "reopening day" today by lifting almost all pandemic-related social distancing and capacity limits. "My heart goes out to all those who have lost a loved one," Mr Biden said, speaking yesterday in Brussels as the tally ticked close to 600,000.

The government task force reported more than 14,700 infections on Sunday, the largest one-day tally since February. Today's case load of 14,185 was almost as high, with 6,805 of them in Moscow. Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Saturday that 18 million Russians had so far been vaccinated against Covid-19, out of a population of more than 144 million.

Moscow region banned mass public events until 15 July. The Siberian region of Buryatia closed public areas including parks, squares and swimming pools until 1 July. It said it needed more intensive care beds after a rise in cases this month. "There should be no anxiety here, no fear here. People who have got their first Pfizer dose should be confident ... that they will get their second dose," state Covid-19 testing commander Jeroen Weimar said.

Restrictions were not eased until April when the city started to reopen after 76 days closed off, although schools remained shut for longer. There were 20 new cases today, including 18 imported from overseas and two in a local outbreak in southern Guangdong province.Quoting a line of ancient Chinese poetry, the banner offered students advice for the future: "The ocean is boundless for leaping fish."The pandemic has worsened corruption across the European Union, Transparency International said, with citizens at times needing personal connections to get medical care and some governments using the crisis for their own gain.

Bribery rates in the health sector were highest in Romania and Bulgaria , while leaning on personal connections happened most often in the Czech Republic and Portugal .

Florida

Tell is about Texas and Florida.

What about Texas and Florida? Opened up ages ago and infection rates fell. Doesn't suit the official narrative?

Didn't anyone tell RTE Florida & Texas did this months ago? Was BrianOD_News washing his hair those days & didn't realise?

This is also why half of Cali moved to Texas and ruined Austin.

Skumbag media reporting misinformation again 🙄

All the trump/Tory’s up at this time commenting on a city they’ve only seen in movies..
