More than half the states in the U.S. have now lifted some restrictions that were put in place to mitigate the spread of the deadly coronavirus.
While most governors are planning a phased reopening, timelines vary by state.
Some have allowed retail and hospitality businesses to open their doors to customers but with restrictions on capacity and types of services. Many states have allowed nonessential medical procedures to resume. Some states that still have stay-at-home orders in place have loosened some restrictions on industries such as outdoor recreation, businesses or workers that were previously limited.
Meanwhile, several states including South Dakota never issued the stay-at-home orders that affected most U.S. residents, although many nonessential businesses were closed.
Here are the 30 states that have partially reopened for business.
