Dana Kelly
Since it opened this summer, Dana Kellyâs downtown restaurant has faced numerous governmental roadblocks and obstacles that officials say are related to coronavirus restriction violations.
In its latest move, the Health Department of St.Louis issued an order Dec. 15 that Kelly close her restaurant, Reign, at 1122 Washington Ave., for a year after allegedly violating two COVID-19 orders during the weekend of Dec. 12. Fredrick Echols, acting director of health, wrote that the restaurant was in violation of not observing social distancing and not requiring all people inside the building to wear masks.
The closure was effective for a year unless all of the following conditions are met sooner: the COVID-19 positivity rate is at or below 5% in the city for 30 consecutive days; the COVID-19 vaccine becomes available for the general population and the city reaches herd immunity; and the pandemic has been declared over by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Â
