The Decision for a curfew
lam not in favor of a curfew unless it is applied citywide to all businesses and the data supports
that more cluster outbreaks are occurring after 9:30 pm.
lam not in favor of targeting a single or a few business sectors if there is science and data that
support there is community spread for a variety of factors.
Please provide the data for the breakdown of the all cluster outbreaks since tracking the spread of
the virus. This can be in general category form if confidentiality is an issue.
Is the city tracking how many businesses have closed temporarily or permanently due to COVID?
What does this data look like?
If the city wants to stop the spread and reduce the burden on the medical facilities because the
hospital and medical data supports this, then a citywide shutdown might be appropriate.
