As a business reporter, I write about small businesses opening and closing, manufacturing, food and drink, labor issues and economic data. I particularly love writing about the impact of state and federal policy on local businesses. I also do some education reporting, covering colleges in southeastern Connecticut and regional K-12 issues.

Restaurant owners say recent data released by the Connecticut Department of Public Health that appears to show COVID clusters centered on eateries doesn’t paint an accurate picture. It’s sparked yet more controversy in the continuing debate over dining during the pandemic. According to a release from the department dated Dec. 23, 2020, the total of epidemiologically linked clusters investigated by the state’s outbreak team was 84.
The most 21 clusters was reported around restaurants, with 19 at workplaces.
Chip Kohn, owner of Beachland Group in West Hartford, says the categorization is misleading.
“We need to be [classified as] a workplace spread because that’s what we are,” he said. “We spread like any other workplace. It’s really not going to our guests, to our customers, it’s going to our employees.”
