let's not kid ourselves these are not temporary...2 weeks turned into 5 months...30 day has turned into years, that's a lot of livelihoods gone and maybe never coming back
we didn't learn from wave 2 , so what different approach are they taking in wave 3?

I'm not going to argue if 48-72 hours would've made anyone happier. Point is giving any type of extended notice is doing more harm than good - that rush of people going to restaurants before restrictions will probably delay the lifting of restrictions.
Not temporary? Huh? You could've said that last year but that doesn't really make sense right now. We have 3 approved vaccines with millions of shipments coming by summer's end. The end is in sight.
I feel for the restaurant industry I really do. I support them as much as possible with takeout and have even dined in the last few months. Each time I dine in though there's numerous groups from different households eating at tables of 6. The only exception was Saku on Broadway and Octopus Garden, mostly tables of 2 setup.
