Reopening too fast could backfire, Pinal board told
by Mark Cowling | PinalCentral
As citizens around the country hold demonstrations to reopen the economy, doing so too soon could backfire, the Pinal County Board of Supervisors was told.
Dr. Shauna McIsaac, Pinal County public health director, said according to White House guidelines, communities shouldn’t begin to relax restrictions until they’ve seen a reduction in cases for 14 days, there’s sufficient testing and monitoring, and hospitals are able to treat all patients.
The supervisors heard updates from McIsaac and other top county staff April 22 on how the county might accelerate economic recovery while following public health guidance.
