The restaurant industry continues to take hits. Los Angeles County health director, Barbara Ferrer, announced that outdoor dining at restaurants in Los Angeles County would be suspended starting on Wednesday. For at least three weeks, restaurants will not be able to seat guests and only have the options of take-out or delivery.
“To reduce the possibility for crowding and the potential for exposures in settings where people are not wearing their face coverings, restaurants, breweries, wineries, and bars will only be able to offer take-out, drive-thru, and delivery services,” the Department of Health said in a press release.
On Sunday, the county’s five-day case average was 4,097.
“The persistent high number of cases requires additional safety measures that limit mixing in settings where people are not wearing mask,” said Ferrer in a statement.
