South Florida is reopening after coronavirus closings. But there are things you can’t do

Before you put on your pants to grab yourself some pre-COVID-19 life, note that there are still several things you can’t do — legally, that is — as Miami-Dade and Broward counties enter their next stages of reopening Monday.

Not every business is free from the coronavirus shutdown.

Here’s what you can’t do yet:

Get a tattoo.

Go to the beach.

Go to a movie theater. Or, live theater Unless it’s a drive-in.

Hit a gym where you have to pay for membership (except in Fort Lauderdale, which says “yes,” while Broward County is saying “no”).

Bowl.

Visit a massage parlor.

Quaff a beer or proper drink at a bar.

Move something at a nightclub.

Get a room at a hotel or motel.

Go to a South Beach restaurant. Or, a North Beach restaurant (Miami Beach is waiting on that).

Go to the Keys (unless you live there).
