This is beyond distressing for small businesses BUT what the hell do the Libs care they have never done ANYTHING but collect checks from Uncle Sam!!!

[Biggirl]

Not surprised at all.

on Staten Island, very places have closed.

Seamless listed dozens of restaurants as delivering today.

those that close are higher end and were ALWAYS doing mostly walk in. in a lot of cases only walk in

no one’s ordering a 150 dollar meal to eat in their living room.

some Asian restaurants have closed here

It’s terrible to say but I don’t know or care what happens in the other four boroughs.

Once I stopped working in Manhattan, they all seemed a million miles away

Hey we got 600 cases out of half a million people.

That’s a lot higher than the country average.

I better lock the front door

[montag813]

THIS....will lead to riots.

[jarwulf]

sure constrict the food supply even more on top of doubling down on ensuring small businesses will be destroyed. That will help things.

How ignorant are you? NYC full of the massively liberal but incredibly productive.

These nations are doing the best and they are not cratering their economy by telling everyone they must stay at home for weeks and weeks

S Korea
Taiwan
Japan
Singapore

Germany is doing well and I think the Scandinavians too.

How long will it be before cannibalism begins? (ref. Donner party) People gotta eat!

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

I am not talking about the businesses and workers I am talking about the damn legislators ruling over them!!!

[9YearLurker]

Ah, in some cases different, yes.

[mewzilla]

Not just NYC.

But nobody in the enemedia gives a damn about Upstate.

“How is Hizzoner going to keep his people fed?”

Deliveries...

[HChampagne]

I think one factor is that people are ordering food only. Restaurants make much of their profit from soda and alcohol.
They simply cannot break even on food only.

[BBQToadRibs]

So many small businesses are going to be crushed beyond saving by this.

Please do your homework.

I have never seen more incorrect information in a single brief post on FR.

(Think of this post as tough love.)

Is that even a word? If it is it hardly applies here. Wuhan flu is just getting ramped up in NYC, not even close to a “crescendo” . Jennifer should “learn to code” .
