Indoor dining will continue to be banned in Prince George's County for the month of January, as COVID-19 health metrics continue to show an alarming spike in cases.
County Executive Angela Alsobrooks announced the extension Thursday after conferring with health officials, who said the county's positivity rate has stayed above 10% for nearly two weeks and the daily case rate has stayed at “critical level” since Nov. 9.
“Much to our dismay, COVID-19 cases continue to rise and our metrics show that we need to extend measures previously implemented to minimize the spread of this virus,” Alsobrooks said. “While this is a difficult decision, we are continuing to do everything we can to support our restaurants during these difficult times, including allocating additional funding to our Restaurant Resiliency Fund. We need all Prince Georgians to continue doing their part to slow the spread of this virus, including wearing a mask, limiting travel, and avoiding gatherings.”
