Salt Lake County leaders are frustrated with the Republican-led Utah Legislature’s attempt to overturn a public health order requiring the use of masks inside public spaces.
“We followed the rules and did exactly as was intended by the law,” said Salt Lake County Mayor Jenny Wilson. “It's unfortunate they are moving the goalposts today.”
“I don't think I have ever seen the government move this fast,” said county health director Dr. Angela Dunn. “Unfortunately, it's in a direction that is harmful to the health of our residents in Salt Lake County.” “I feel like we keep getting punched in the gut every time we try to protect our citizens. I feel like this is taking several steps backward in our response to the COVID pandemic,” Dr. Dunn said. “The less spread we have, the less hospitalizations we have, the less disruptions we will have on our economy and the less chances for yet another variant.”
