Governor Kay Ivey lifted the “Stay-at-Home” order that had been in place for Alabama until 5 p.m. on April 30, and replaced the order with a “Safer-at-Home” directive. The new order allowed the state’s beaches to open, and also allowed most retail businesses to open, although certain restrictions are still in place that will limit crowds and require social distancing. Restaurants are still allowed to serve carry-out orders only. Hospitals and long-term care facilities must still restrict visitors and continue policies designed to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The order did not allow hair and beauty salons, gyms and fitness centers, and entertainment venues to open.
