Credit Daniela Allee, NHPR The Nashua Board of Health is recommending the city impose a curfew in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. The 9:30 pm curfew would prohibit indoor activities at businesses including bars, restaurants and clubs. Takeout would be allowed to continue. Nashua has one of the state's highest rates of COVID-19 cases, and public health officials there say COVID-19 hospitalization and death rates are on the rise. Nashua alderman Tom Lopez said a curfew was the least the city could do, given the mounting crisis. "I don't think the public fully grasps that we are in the emergency, versus maybe looking at it further down the road,” he said.
