As a business in the hospitality community, we are strongly opposed to making requirements for infectious diseases permanent. None of our businesses were built to withstand constant restrictions like the ones we've seen over the last few months. We are all barely hanging on, and trying to make it through to a day when we can return to a more normal state of operations. We understand that COVID is a serious disease that requires alterations and increased safety requirements. However, we cannot withstand these requirements being made permanent and continuing past the immediate COVID threat. 

Thank you,
