Daily life on Delmarva amid the COVID-19 pandemic might look different depending on where you live. Maryland has taken another step toward lifting restrictions by allowing restaurants to open at 75% capacity, yet the city of Salisbury has imposed new rules in response to a spike in cases. All indoor gatherings in the city have been limited to 15 people, while outdoor gatherings aren't allowed to exceed 50. These limits don't apply to retail stores, offices, restaurants, youth sports or any gatherings for a spiritual purpose. The order will be re-examined in about a week and a half as fresher data becomes available about the virus's spread in the area. For several months, state and local leaders have been cautiously monitoring key metrics like hospitalizations, deaths and positivity rates.
