Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms disagrees with the governor's decision to open up businesses in Georgia, saying 'All of the numbers that you are seeing now, for as high as they are, it's been with extreme social distancing measures in place.'
Another critic was Atlanta's Democratic mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms. Fulton County, where most of Atlanta lies, has more than 3,500 confirmed COVID-19 cases, the most of any county in Georgia.."All of the numbers that you are seeing now, for as high as they are, it's been with extreme social distancing measures in place."over the past several days, but says"over the next couple of weeks, we will see whether or not the reopening of our state sends us in the other direction.
But one of the newest hot spots that we have in our state is in Gainesville, Ga., primarily hitting the Latino community. So I think it's just this reminder, whether you are a densely populated city or a more rural town, COVID-19 can still strike and it can spread very rapidly.I think that there was perhaps a way for us to be very thoughtful about a phased reopening.
