Brooklyn businesses brace for coronavirus fallout
Some businesses across Brooklyn have already started feeling the pain from the novel coronavirus outbreak, even as officials warn it has barely begun.
The outbreak has proven to be especially tragic for restaurants and shops in Asian neighborhoods like Sunset Park, where four popular restaurants have already closed their doors.
Small businesses will likely be hit harder than large companies, according to the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, which on Thursday launched a COVID-19 Small Business Task Force.
