Georgia officials came under heavy fire for easing lockdown restrictions and allowing some businesses to reopen last month. But state data continues to show steady drops in both new confirmed cases of the CCP virus, and in seven-day moving averages.
As businesses adjust, some owners told The Epoch Times they fully agreed with the actions made by Georgia’s Republican Governor Brian Kemp. Kemp based his decision to re-ignite the economy on “favorable data, enhanced testing, and approval of our healthcare professionals.” He allowed a multitude of sectors to open up their doors a few weeks ago.
Last month, virus cases peaked on April 20 with 925 confirmed cases in one day. In contrast, 23 new cases of the virus were confirmed on May 11, according to data from the Georgia Department of Public Health.
The 7-day moving average for April 20 meanwhile was 755.3. For May 11, it was 246.4.
