While the cases of COVID-19 continue to rise, last weekend, the Tidal Basin was still packed in hopes to see the Cherry Blossoms at peak bloom.
According to NBCWashington, Mayor Bowser has put in new restrictions today: "D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has directed police and the D.C. National Guard to enforce restricted access to the Tidal Basin as the city tries to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus. Bowser's office said Sunday night that in addition to street closures, pedestrian and bicycle traffic would be restricted in the area of the National Mall until further notice."
Stay home. Wash your hands. Keep everyone safe!
