This has been true since Day #1. Ever since 11/8/2016 RATs have been throwing scams at the wall. This one finally stuck.

Cuomo, following his bias rather than science. Given Orthodox Jew's voting habits I can see why Cuomo designates them red zones.
As you probably know, 2020 is the 400th Anniversary of the Pilgrims’ Landing in 1620. The Town of Plymouth, MA has been celebrating this awesome anniversary for two solid years, with concerts, exhibits, programs, displays, and celebrations which were supposed to culminate on Thanksgiving of this year. The Taverns, Bars, Restaurants, and Hotels were all involved, as were the Local Native Tribes, and all the region’s Musicians and Entertainers.
Since ALL of my family are in the Music Business, we were all booked solid for this wonderful and important two-year-long event.
Well, of course, the lockdown put the kibosh on all of that. It’s been a pathetic summer for us all.
Recently, the Restaurateurs, Bar-Owners, Musicians, and Retailers have been struggling to revive the Tourist Industry. Court Street has been made One-Way so the restaurants and bars can spill out onto the sidewalks (even though it’s getting chilly in New England). Bands are still not allowed, so the musicians have split up into soloists and duos. Everybody is trying SO hard!
And yet, just last week several places were “raided” by the “COVID-Cops” and either told to disperse or even shut down.
We have been told that we are a “RED ZONE”.
Grrrrrrrrr.....
Alternately Plymouth could celebrate King Phillip's War, in which the natives killed about 30% of New England colonists including many from Plymouth. They wouldn't dare shut that down.
It's going to take years for tourism to recover.
...where a lot of those increases are from residential care facilities and a local prison.
This crap by Cuomo only makes sense if there a political motivation involved.
I think Plymouth earned the “Red Zone” label, not so much because they vote Republican, but that they were promoting a very patriotic, American, History-Conscious, Celebration.
PS...King Philip (Metacomet) gets a LOT of press around here. :-)
