chosen: Businesses across the country are choosing to close their indoor dining spaces to ensure safety during the COVID pandemic. Many restaurants and other food service businesses have implemented a takeout and catering only policy to limit exposure to contagious customers, which leads to losses in revenue from customers eating inside the restaurants. Additionally, states and cities are introducing additional sanitation regulations, such as increased scrub requirements and mask mandates which can put a strain on the cost of operating a food business. By closing indoor dining, many businesses can preserve their bottom line while still meeting the new public health measures put in place to stop the spread of virus.
