Gov. Brian Kemp extended the state’s closure of bars and nightclubs until the end of May, while he also eased other restrictions Tuesday.

The governor eased capacity limits on restaurants that are offering dine-in service and doubled the allowable number of children in a daycare classroom to 20. He also will allow summer camps to reopen as long as they follow guidelines he set out in an executive order.
