Description

To prevent the spread of COVID-19, Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings has authorized strike teams to conduct compliance checks on businesses, including restaurants, bars, and nightclubs, to make sure they are following the rules, and, if not, assessing fines on those businesses.

In this week's Central Florida: Beyond the Soundbite, he explains the importance of COVID executive orders and why businesses like nightclubs and bars need to be inspected as the coronavirus numbers continue to climb. 

He takes the time to explain how the county's COVID strike teams operate and he shares his plans on how to get the economy on the road to recovery in 2021.
