The plans are less elaborate blueprints than outlines of what the new "normal" might look like.
Even as President Donald Trump prepares to release his guidelines for how states can ease stay-at-home and social distancing restrictions, governors in California, New York and other states are starting to roll out their own ideas.
"It would really be the worst possible time for us to try to put more people out there and endanger them,” Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, chairman of the National Governors Association, said Thursday on NBC’s “Today” show about the prospect of lifting restrictions now. New Jersey’s Phil Murphy on Wednesday described a scenario Wednesday of restaurants operating at 50 percent capacity, with tables spaced apart from one another, staffed by waiters wearing masks and gloves.
Cuomo said the state’s workforce would be phased back in the same manner New York shut down, scaling up by 25 percent, then 50 percent and continuing with “more essential” businesses with lower risks of infection opening sooner. He, Cuomo and other governors have also formed regional coalitions, reflecting a kind of “hold-hands-and-jump” resolve to reopen together so that no one state has to take on excessive risk or the chance of cross-transmission with a state that has a different set of precautions.
