Jacksonville had less than 20 cases of the CCP virus per day before reopening beaches, a top White House official noted.

The Florida city drew some criticism after authorities decided to let residents onto beaches but Dr. Deborah Birx, response coordinator for the White House Coronavirus Task Force, told reporters that most cases in Florida are in the southern part of the state.
