Business owners and their employees have worked hard to protect their customers and their communities during the COVID-19 pandemic, and I want to thank all of those who have prioritized health and safety despite the hardship of the past several months.
COVID-19 spreads most easily and quickly when people gather together, especially indoors. That has made it harder for businesses to operate safely since the start of the pandemic, and has forced business owners, employees, and patrons to take unprecedented steps to protect themselves and their communities.
We cannot change the nature of this disease, but we can do everything in our power to help the businesses and people hurt by the pandemic. That’s why my administration has made supporting Pennsylvania’s businesses a priority throughout the pandemic.
