New York’s museums and bowling alleys will soon be allowed to reopen, while protocols for reopening gyms will be announced on Aug. 17, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Aug. 14.
Museums, bowling alleys, and gyms were among indoor venues that were deemed nonessential and ordered to close in late March as part of efforts to curb the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as the novel coronavirus. And while all areas of New York state have entered the least restrictive phase of the state’s reopening plan, phase 4, those venues were held back from reopening until now.
