(Joe Cavaretta/AP) The state of Florida has been on the forefront of the country’s reopening effort in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, but due to a recent spike in cases, many of its popular beaches will remain closed to residents and tourists during Fourth of July weekend. Miami will keep its beaches and parks off-limits from Friday, July 3, through Tuesday, July 7, while Fort Lauderdale announced a closure from July 3-5. These restrictions have been put in place due to fears from officials that, during the holiday, people won’t follow the rules put in place to limit the spread of the virus.
