They're hoping it doesn't have to go that far. You as a private citizen can stay away from such private establishments and quarantine yourself. I'm sure without using the police, the governor could temporary revoke the liquor and food license of every restaurant and bar or a modified version of that, and then use inspectors to enforce his orders.

JohnW is right. It's not up to The Developer to shut down the restaurants, it's up to state government. I think many restaurants are trying to follow the "social distancing" dictated by the government. I was in a restaurant today and was seated probably 10 ft. from anyone else in the restaurant. They wiped down the table with disinfectant wipes when we sat down. They are wiping down the menus..They are doing everything they can to minimize issues.
They are a business. They are trying to make a living. So they are doing everything they can to try to eliminate any "germ transfer." There are so many people who work at these establishments that depend on that income to live. Today I tipped the server 30%.
I'm not saying to go out to a restaurant. Staying home is the safest option. But if you do go out.... give these servers a really good tip. Because they are struggling right now.
