Reading, Berks Officials Urging Community To Wear Masks
(Reading, PA) -- Reading and Berks County officials are coming together to urge community members to wear masks. They say they have heard reports of several businesses failing to require patrons to wear masks or practice social distancing. Officials say it's important to wear masks to protect yourself and others from spreading the virus. They're also reminding people that it's an order from the state. Officials are asking for voluntary compliance, but they say police are allowed to issue citations to people who do not wear masks in public.
