CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Charleston Mayor John Tecklenburg hinted at a news conference Monday afternoon that the city could ease its mask ordinance and social distancing rules as early as next week.
But that, he said, depends on more people being vaccinated against COVID-19.
“We’re getting close, but we’re not quite there yet,” he said at a Monday afternoon news conference. “And it’s not just about the economy, y’all, it’s about life, it’s about our public health, about our human health.”
Tecklenburg said Charleston City Council will meet on May 11, and that many of the city’s ordinances related to COVID-19 expire on May 12.
