Written by Site Hub on December 14, 2020
Yesterday from 10 am to 3 pm, Monroe County distributed rapid COVID-19 tests so that salons could reopen this week.
One of the guidelines to re open salons in the orange zone is that the stylists have to test negative for the coronavirus.
“The ability to provide them the resources they need to be able to go back to work and stay in business is critical to our financial health, and really, overall, the morale of the community, to be able to see us moving forward in a positive direction,” said Richard Tantalo, Director of Public Safety for Monroe County.
Erika Sorbello, owner of Gallery Salon in Rochester said that her business has been closed since November 25.
“That eighteen days, during our busiest holiday season, was a huge hit for us financially… I’m thrilled that we’re reopening, I can’t wait to get back to work.” said Sorbello.
