Republican and Democratic-leaning states have announced their reopening plans. This is a very positive sign that shows we are moving forward. As cities and states reopen, there will be a heightened demand for workers. The job market will heat up and hiring will boom.
Although cases and deaths from the coronavirus have dropped significantly since the record-breaking highs of early January, public health officials say it s not yet time for states to loosen restrictions.

With COVID-19 cases declining and vaccines rolling out, states across the U.S. are beginning to lift restrictions on gatherings and businesses.
North Carolina may consider lifting restrictions, Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mandy Cohen says, but there s no timeline for it yet.
We were bursting, but we held it together and now we have some breathing room in our trends. I think if we continue to head in that direction and we see our vaccination growth, that is what will tell us, Cohen told Spectrum News reporter Tim Boyum on an episode of his podcast released this week.
