Miami-Dade County mayor lifts indoor dining coronavirus restrictions

By the numbers: Miami-Dade, one of the largest hotspots for the virus in the country, has been Florida's hardest-hit county, with 152,612 confirmed coronavirus cases and 2,253 deaths to date, according to Johns Hopkins University data.

The big picture: This will be the second time dining rooms reopen since the start of the pandemic. Gimenez reimposed a ban on indoor dining in early July after his county experienced a surge in coronavirus cases.

• The mayor issued a 10pm to 6am curfew, as the state recorded its highest single-day coronavirus spike in July. Gimenez will not push back the curfew, but said he will revisit the issue after the Labor Day holiday weekend.
• Restaurants can resume table service inside on Aug. 31, though they must limit indoor capacity to 50%
• Requirements now include that eateries have air conditioning on, open windows and doors, and have no more than six people per table.
