Michigan, USA
The Federal courts
changed their mind about allowing gyms to reopen. They will remain closed. Didn't save the article at the time.
[Edit to add:
"A three-judge 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals panel intervened Wednesday night to keep indoor gyms in Michigan closed hours before they were scheduled to reopen under a lower court's order.
Agreeing with a request from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's administration, the panel issued an emergency stay, pausing an injunction from U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney that would have allowed the gyms to open at 12:01 a.m. Thursday.
The stay suspends the reopening as Whitmer continues to appeal the matter."
