Bill,
Someone told me today that restaurants are spreading covid faster than any other place. Are there any stats on that?
Probably. I did a quick Google search and found some nice links. I won't do a deep dive into any of them right now, though.

One of my friends from NYC told me about how restaurants are setting up "outdoor dining" inside tents. But if the tents are enclosed with little ventilation (because you know, it's freakin' cold in NY at this time of year), then it's no different than just dining indoors.

Some restaurants are coming up with private tents, like one party per tent. Here's a picture of a single-party "igloo" in Minnesota:



And if you have access to the WSJ, here's a good article:

P.S. - Each one-party tent needs to be ventilated for 15 minutes between parties. And of course, every surface has to be wiped down. What a bother for local restaurants, especially non-chains, but they're gonna have to do that if they don't want to just be an UberEats or DoorDash establishment.
