Gov. Henry McMaster announced Wednesday he will not lift more COVID-19 restrictions in South Carolina as long as case counts increase.

“If these numbers continue to rise, if we continue to see this kind of danger going across our state, I will have no choice … but to keep these restrictions on crowds and gatherings in place,” McMaster said during a news conference Wednesday. “That means this fall will not be like other falls. We will not be able to have college football.”
