With Covid-19 cases continuing to tick upward, Pinellas County Administrator Barry A. Burton and Sheriff Bob Gualtieri called on residents and business owners - especially those who operate bars and restaurants - to “double down” on their efforts to practice social distancing and mask wearing to keep the community safe.
“Our ordinance hasn’t changed,” Burton said at a press conference Thursday afternoon. “What has changed is that we’ve taken our foot off the gas. We get that everyone’s tired and wanting to go back to normal, and we’ve come a long way, but we have a little ways to go.”
