Across US, a 'tale of two cities' as some embrace reopening amid coronavirus and others remain wary
SAN FRANCISCO — The nation's disjointed approach to re-opening has revealed two Americas.

Meanwhile in Georgia, where Gov. Brian Kemp has pushed for a faster opening, Atlanta public relations exec Jenny Moss isn’t ready to resume old habits.
