“#Andrew Cuomo\u2019s inside-dining rules for the city are absurd and unfair<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n It took 6 months, a $2 billion lawsuit, the risk of losing nearly three-quarters of the city\u2019s restaurants and public shaming from the president for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to finally OK indoor dining in the city \u2014 and he\u2019s still<\/em> insisting on absurd and unfair restrictions.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just that it has to wait \u2019til the end of the month. Beyond the standard mask and social<\/a>-distancing rules, the gov orders all eateries to close by midnight \u2014 just the latest in his long string of \u201cdon\u2019t have too much fun\u201d edicts.<\/p>\n

Plus, unlike casinos, they must take customers\u2019 temperatures on entry and get (and keep) contact info to allow for the tracing of any outbreaks.<\/p>\n

It may make sense to start off by limiting seating to a quarter of pre-COVID capacity \u2014 but Cuomo should offer clear guidelines on the conditions (e.g., no significant uptick in new cases) for quickly moving the bar up to 50 percent. If it proves safe, the limits need to loosen, fast: The hospitality industry is drowning after six months on the sidelines.<\/p>\n

Restaurants in most of New York, including counties next to the city, have been open at 50 percent capacity since June. Why would eateries here be higher-risk than those in Buffalo, Rochester or Albany?<\/p>\n

Bowling alleys opened a few weeks ago at half capacity. City gyms are open at 33 percent capacity and malls at 50 percent; each museum gets to set its own regulations. But Cuomo \u2014 with Mayor de Blasio cheering him on \u2014 continues to inexplicably single out restaurants as a special source of danger.<\/p>\n

The extra restrictions make even less sense next to public-transportation guidelines, which basically stop at the mask requirement.<\/p>\n

Strangers can huddle into a packed subway train, but it\u2019s too dangerous to eat a meal in the same room as more than 10 other people? When the city\u2019s overall infection rate hasn\u2019t surpassed 1 percent in a month? Just doesn\u2019t compute.<\/p>\n

Cuomo has claimed that New York City needs more careful monitoring because its spread rate is higher and people tend to ignore the social-distancing guidelines. But the stats suggest otherwise: The city\u2019s infection rate has consistently mirrored that of the rest of the state for months now.<\/p>\n

Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis, who joined a host of restaurant owners in suing Cuomo over his failure to reopen the city in a timely manner, says the suit will proceed until the gov allows 50 percent restaurant capacity. Good.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s past time to give this industry some hope of survival \u2014 at the very least, the same hope it has in the rest of New York.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
