\n Mayor Bill de Blasio said there\u2019s no concrete plan to resume indoor dining because it\u2019s too high-risk an activity in the age of coronavirus.<\/p>\n

The mayor on Tuesday was grilled about restarting one of the the city\u2019s most beloved pastimes following fierce criticism and the threat of legal action from the restaurant industry, which has suffered massive losses or revenues and jobs that has not been supplanted by takeout and outdoor dining.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe haven\u2019t been able to set a firm standard because we see a real problem and challenge here,\u201d de Blasio said at his daily press briefing.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd what we need to do first and foremost is focus on the health and safety of New Yorkers and on bringing back our city smartly and not allowing the mistakes we\u2019ve seen in so much of the country and so much of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

New York City is the only state region that still does not have some indoor dining allowed, while it is allowed in neighboring suburban counties like Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester.<\/p>\n

Dr. Jay Varma, the mayor\u2019s senior adviser for public health, also weighed in, saying New York City has two factors to consider: the likelihood that indoor dining could lead to outbreaks of COVID-19 and the \u201cvulnerability\u201d of the city itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know through experience everywhere around the world and also from the United States that indoor dining is a very high-risk activity and there\u2019s reasons for that,\u201d Varma said, pointing to the lack of masks while eating, proximity to other people and duration spent indoors.<\/p>\n

He also alluded to the Big App<\/a>le once serving as the coronavirus epicenter of the world \u2014 comprising about half of the country\u2019s total cases in late March and leading to 25,295 deaths.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been through an extremely traumatic time for everyone with thousands of deaths and we need to be cautious about introducing a high-risk activity into a place that we know is extremely vulnerable,\u201d Varma added.<\/p>\n

De Blasio then blasted the notion that students eating inside classrooms was equivalent to allowing diners indoors \u2014 saying education is a moral obligation while the latter is \u201ca very optional activity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s a similarity at all,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen we talk about schools, this is something that is mandated for our children to get an education for free \u2014 a quality education. So we have an imperative legal, imperative moral, imperative educational, imperative to give kids the best education we can. We know that means having at least some time in person.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndoor dining matters because of the culture of this city, because of a lot of jobs, we admire the people who have created these businesses,\u201d he said, also noting that schools are part of the private sector while restaurants are private.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut you can\u2019t compare the legal and moral imperative.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
