Prom season is back for Johnston County schools, but there will be a pandemic twist T. Keung Hui, The News & Observer (Raleigh, N.C.)
Feb. 20 Johnston County high school students will be allowed to have a prom this year as long as it s outdoor and meets COVID-19 safety rules.
High school proms across the nation were canceled last year due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Johnston County school system announced Friday that proms will be permitted this year if they follow guidance from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper s executive orders.
Rules include:
Johnson and Johnson plans to have 10 million COVID-19 vaccines available in the USA by April. Dr. Anthony Fauci said Thursday that the company is close to seeking an emergency use authorization from the Food and Drug Administration.
As the U.S. enters "what may well be the toughest and deadliest period of the virus," President Joe Biden is putting forth a national COVID-19 strategy to ramp up vaccinations and testing, reopen schools and businesses and increase the use of masks.
