NYC mayor suggests indoor dining will likely shut down soon
New York City’s public schools are closed. Will restaurants and bars be next?
The day after he announced that New York City schools would close to in-person learning, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Thursday that other businesses will likely shut down within a week or two as well to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
De Blasio noted that Gov. Andrew Cuomo has indicated that all of New York City could be declared an orange zone under the state’s guidelines, which would trigger the shutdown of gyms as well as indoor service at bars and restaurants.
