If small businesses are supported in <br />opening prior to full state authority, please mandate that safety <br />measures be put into place and enforced. Social distancing <br />alone is not enough. Mask wearing should also be a <br />requirement so that all citizens can go about safely. Having <br />been to grocery stores and restaurant curbside pick-ups, mask <br />wearing has not readily been adopted in our community, <br />particularly by small business owners/employees. These two <br />science-based articles demonstrate why mask wearing is <br />important to protect all citizens of our community if you are <br />going to bypass state regulations: <br />https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in- <br />depth/coronavirus-mask/art-20485449 <br />https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting- <br />sick/cloth-face-cover.html#stud <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
