For millions of American students and families, spring break is a much anticipated fun-in-the-sun vacation, or an opportunity to travel to Europe or a more far-flung locale.
But, in yet another way the coronavirus pandemic is having an impact on everyday life, spring break 2020 has been largely thrown to the wayside.
The city of Miami Beach, an always popular spring break destination, officially canceled spring break last week when it declared a state of emergency. "The city is canceling or postponing all public events, including the spring break beachfront activation, Culture Crawl," the press release stated. Miami Beach also announced the closure of parts of South Beach over the weekend.
