More mask masks and closed bars / restaurants can stop overvoltage

As for the cessation of the current overvoltage, Birx had some ideas. "First of all, what we know that the work is mask mask, mask requirements," she said. "In the states that made those mayors or counties that did it, we can see a truly significant difference in not only cases, but also hospitalizations and deaths. And thus start with mask mask mandates and Absolutely key masking requirements, followed by if you have high numbers and you see increased hospitalizations, the first thing to do is close spaces where people can not wear mask. And we know where it is. It is bars and interior restaurants. Reduce the capacity if necessary. You may need to close them.. We have seen that it works. That's what Arizona did. And that's where Arizona has had control. Arizona is able to really look at that again because their case numbers are where they were in summer. "
