Bars – How Much Longer?

• Target: about 50-75 new cases/week x 2-3 weeks• We did not adopt extreme measures (i.e., shutdown)

– It takes longer

• Lifting restrictions too early resulted in resurgence in many places

“If I could go back and redo anything, it probably would have been to slow

down the opening of bars”
