COLUMBUS, Ohio (WJW)– Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced a new curfew, aimed at slowing the spread of coronavirus.
After hinting at more restrictions last week, the governor introduced the latest health order during his news conference on Tuesday.
The curfew will start on Thursday and run for 21 days. All establishments will be closed from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
“We believe this will help reduce COVID-19 spread. I’m also asking each Ohioan every day to do at least one thing that reduces your contact with others,” DeWine said.
The curfew is not intended to stop anyone from going to work, getting groceries or takeout, or seeking medical attention, according to DeWine. He said people should use common sense.
“We are in this together, Ohio. Each one of us will make a difference. If we can cut down contacts by 20 to 25 percent, this will make a difference. Paired with mask-wearing, this will go a long way from stopping our hospitals from being overrun.”
BTW, DeWine is a member of the GOP.
I think DeWhiner represents the CCP, as so many politicians do now.
mask HARDER!
Sounds like a Biden slogan
All the cool kids are doing it.
The moon causes COVID.
We believe this will help reduce COVID-19 spread
Based on what evidence or theory?
Places hardest hit will be bars and maybe restaurants. The stores that are open 24 hours are usually pretty empty after 10 p.m. This is DeWine trying to show he’s doing something without really doing anything.
It’s a temporal based virus citizen.
Eat your peas!
Here's King DeWine's orders from yesterday:
Director's Order for Retail and Business Compliance for Facial Coverings throughout the State of Ohio. Effective Nov. 16, 2020 at 12:01 a.m.
Major points: •Businesses shall be closed if they don't comply. •Businesses are now responsible for enforcing the government's mask orders. •Businesses must now have an on-site compliance officer assigned from their staff. •If a business violates this order, they will first receive a warning then a notice to close immediately. •Citizens are provided a phone number to call and report violations. •BWC, local health department and local police are authorized to inspect businesses and enforce this order.
With this order, he's turned businesses into law enforcement agencies, has the Bureau of Workmen's Comp. spying on businesses and to me, the worst part is...HE'S WANTS PEOPLE TO FINK ON ONE ANOTHER.
. . . and they apparently know where to find it; it only hangs out in bars.
This is DeWine trying to show he’s doing something without really doing anything.
This is (ENTER GOVERNOR NAME HERE) trying to show he’s doing something without really doing anything.
The man is a tyrant and a jerk who knows his edicts are unconstitutional, so he trys to scare the public into enforcing his BS.
I everyone told him to go to hell what would he do?
Looks like all the usual suspects (governors) are chiming in today with super restrictions. Defiance not compliance. Unfortunately there is at least 50% of the population that seems to welcome this draconian system. If people haven’t woke up after this massive fraud in the election, I’m not sure they ever will. The left has no interest in the people of this country. The virus, although real, was an opportunity to try to bring down the economy. It failed the first time, so hell, let’s do it again. Until people in this country defy these tyrants en masse, the rest of us will have an uphill battle to keep our civil liberties.
>so, does the virus take it easy from 8am until 10pm? this just doesn’t make a lot of sense.<
DeWine is a total moron. You should see his weekly hour and a half press conferences with his wife Fran, who BTW, sews their facemasks. You think you’re watching a SNL skit.
Defiance not compliance!!!
It saddens me how many of my family and friends just follow like sheep.
I’m already living through watching my once social and happy 79 year old parents turn into shells of themselves. Scared to leave their home. They are both depressed. We are having freaking thanksgiving dinner in a garage with the door opened and a space heater because they are afraid of this kids and grandkids. Christmas is already canceled. How the hell is this good for anyone. The kids are confused. Back to remote learning. Town over has 200+ kids at the high school quarantined for exposure so now they are all home. Keep everyone gone and terrified is the plan. Idiots.
>A beer at 9:59 doesn’t cause covid, but a beer at 10:00 does. What a sneaky virus!<
A virus that can tell time?! Who’d a thunk it?
and Daylight Savings Time as well...WOW!
Teach your children hell....
What’s in the water... or is it Kool Aid with these governors? It seems like they are racing to see which one of them can destroy their states’ economies faster.
>He is KILLING OHIO<
I agree. Either DeWine is doing that on purpose or he’s too stupid to figure that out.
