"North Carolina is using the data to guide our decisions about when to lift COVID-19 restrictions, and overall our key indicators remain stable. Safer At Home Phase 2 is another careful step forward, and we have to continue taking this virus seriously to prevent a dangerous spike in infections," Cooper stated.

Phase two lifts the stay-at-home order and replaces it with a"Safer at Home recommendation." While bars, night clubs, gyms, and movie theaters will remain closed in phase two, restaurants, salons and barbers shops are allowed to open at 50 percent capacity. Swimming pools can also open at half capacity.

"From the beginning, North Carolinians have joined together to confront this crisis. We need to rely upon one another to practice the three Ws as we begin leaving our homes more. When we wear a face covering, wait six feet apart, and wash our hands often, we are showing we care for our loved ones and neighbors," Cohen said in the Wednesday statement.

Protesters from a grassroots organization called REOPEN NC protests the North Carolina coronavirus lockdown at a parking lot adjacent to the North Carolina State Legislature in Raleigh, North Carolina, on April 14, 2020. - The group was demanding the state economy be opened up no later than April 29.

Infection -- not hospitalization, not deaths, not anything except infection...like the Flu & because of testing. Clickbait headline!

Oh no millions will die

Article should mention the average rate of new cases for the week prior to opening and the average rate since. Without that, these numbers don't say much. Should also go into the predicted rate of increase since no matter when we open, there will be an increase.

It's like a parent turning a blind eye from the truth. They don't want the responsibility or are too self absorbed. Then they are shocked with reality. Yet still, want to deny. Bad parent
