The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is requiring restaurants, barbershops, tattoo parlors, recreational facilities, and entertainment establishments to record the names, contact information, and visit times of all customers to “aid with contact tracing.” Any establishment that does not comply is threatened with a maximum $200 fine, a misdemeanor charge punishable with up to six months in prison, and a $1,000 civil fine for violating the state’s emergency orders.
The order, announced Friday, comes as Michigan’s Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and her administration began backtracking on the state’s latest reopening plan and tightening COVID-19 restrictions, citing rising hospitalizations and deaths. Other states including New York have implemented similar contact tracing rules, requiring restaurants to record diners’ information in the case of an outbreak.
In addition to scaling back the number of people at gatherings at indoor venues from 500 to 50, the order also advised against shouting and screaming at events, claiming that cheering could spread the virus in the air 30 times more than speaking. The newly announced restrictions also emphasized and extended the use of face masks, including on children as young as 2 years old at daycare, school, or “similar indoor settings.”
Earlier in the year, Whitmer signed an executive order threatening a misdemeanor charge and $500 fine for anyone wouldn’t wear a face mask in public indoor and crowded outdoor spaces.
Whitmer and her administration have received criticism for her handling of the coronavirus after she signed an executive order similar to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s ordering nursing homes and assisted living centers to readmit infected patients into facilities filled with vulnerable people.

Give Jake Elwood’s info.
The newest Trafalgar poll still has Michigan solidly in the Biden camp. I don’t get it. How could any sane human being support more of this madness???
Time to recall her.
Whitler can shove her orders up her @$$ with broken glass!
She hysterical.
Sanctuary city dems say it’s not their job to police illegal immigration. Yet they are perfectly fine forcing private businesses/citizens to do contact tracing. Interesting.
They dont
They dont
And did I see MI is almost all red..
Would hate to run into him in a dark ally, looks like a bad dude./sarc
When was Robert Gordon elected?
But not for her.
2022 is when the next election for Governor will be held.
There used to be taxicab company in Detroit. The number was 313-777-7777. That’s what I planned to use.
I may even buy a burner phone to use while I’m there.
Whitaker must go!!!
And even then the state level deep staters will find employment at some agency and continue the madness.
A long time ago, I developed the theory that Democrats are enthusiastic Puritans, while Republicans are reluctant Puritans. This keeps the theory alive.
I talked to a MI resident today. She was going to use Mary Smith 248-555-1212.
People over there are fed up with the MI governor and her cronies. She better hope people forget when she is up for re-election...or she is betting on Slow Joe the Pedo to win and appoint her to some cabinet position.
“Recall this mad dictator”
Not a chance. Through it all, Michiganders love her.
