He said that the state's coronavirus numbers show promising signs of stabilization, and the start of the school year later this month means it is the time to"double down" on safety.."Other states that lifted restrictions quickly have had to go backward as their hospital capacity ran dangerously low and their cases jumped higher.

He added that college campuses will open for students but will use more buildings and less in-person instruction than in a typical year.
