The Coronavirus Task Force says Americans can go out for Memorial Day weekend to partake in outdoor activities while taking appropriate measures to protect themselves and others.
"Please, as you go out this weekend understand you can go out, you can be outside, you can play golf, you can play tennis with marked balls, you can go to the beaches if you stay six feet apart. But remember that is your space, and that is the space that you need to protect and ensure you are social distanced for others," Birx said.
In an interview on WTMJ 4 in Milwaukee Wednesday, Alex Azar, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, said that there are"appropriate things" people should do, but they can go out to enjoy the weekend while observing local and state laws. "I would encourage you as always to evaluate and know your own circumstances. What is your own level of risk as well as those of your household members because that can help play into your decision making," Azar said.
"Going to your lake place in Wisconsin, keeping appropriate distance from non-family members, wearing a face mask if you are in settings where you are going to have to be closer than six feet from people—these are appropriate things we can do. We can get outside, we can enjoy life, enjoy the great weather. That is all part of getting America back up and running again," Azar said.
