GRAND FORKS, ND (trfnews.i234.me) Grand Forks Mayor answers questions about COVID-19 and safety in bars when businesses reopen.
I guess for mayor Brown are you in line with the governor’s restart order when it comes in to specific businesses more specifically a bars places where people go to meet each other stand together at the bar I mean that’s how they work and it can these guidelines work yes I think they can and people that’s why we were emphasizing the be vigilant follow the guidelines and this is not this will be the new normal you’ll be standing six feet away from people you’ll be wearing a mask except when you’re drinking I guess so you don’t have to be aware very environment and be safe because we’re too gonna transition into this and if we find that there’s hot spots maybe we’ll have to change the dynamic but where people are ready to get back to a normal of some kind so that we’re going to explore it slowly I think if we see a dramatic increase in the amount of cases or problem or health problems or our health system looks like it’s being overwhelmed then I think we would step back and say let’s stop the spread so it’s a dynamic and fluid process and we would have to look at it as we go along
Will Bars be Safe for Business Restart during COVID-19?
Guidelines won't be met in our bars. I work in one here and there's no guidelines being met nor will be met, so everyone will still be very much at risk. Scary times for all of us.
