Скачать или смотреть Clearwater Beach to close amid COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic

The city of Clearwater has declared a state of emergency in response to the coronavirus pandemic and ordered all its public beaches to close for at least two weeks -- beginning at 6 a.m. on March 23.

It's part of an effort to help promote social distancing and limit the spread of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. The decision only applies to the sand, not to the restaurants or businesses.

Clearwater Beach has been frequently ranked as one of the best beaches in the United States. The decision to shut down the beaches was made during an emergency meeting of city council on Wednesday evening.
