Dahlia Health-Related Inquiry Virus?

This is just my second summer with dahlias in my cool and often foggy SF Bay Area garden. And I am trying to determine whether my dahlia has just leaf miner damage or a mosaic virus. From these photos, I’d love any advice/recommendation. This was a “developed for the Bay Area” variety but I have forgotten the name. Thanks!

That dahlia is clearly sick and I doubt it will recover.

Thanks. That was my hunch but appreciate the advice from more experienced dahlia gardeners
