Should restaurants/bars be closed except for take out or delivery until covid is improving?
I voted no. As long as the workers are wearing masks and tables are far enough apart.
Are some restaurants back to full capacity? I haven't been to one that still doesn't have tables 6 ft apart and are at 50% capacity.I think this is where we are. Don't force them completely closed but go back to distancing requirements.

I also think it depends on how the place is set up. This is a super specific reference but Yanni's in Ankeny is mostly booths which are back-to-back-to-back-etc... The backs of each booth have plexi-glass separators that go up dang near the ceiling. The staff are all masked up. I have only been in for carryout but I would consider eating there.I think this is where we are. Don't force them completely closed but go back to distancing requirements.

Without coming out and saying it, the majority of our leaders have prioritized the economy over the virus (with the assumption that a vaccine is on the way). I'm fine with that until we see a growing increase in deaths. As bad of leadership that Covid Kim has been displaying lately, I agree with her that the virus is here to stay and we have to learn to live with it.

Because you can engage in "other business and activity" while still wearing your mask.Why bars and restaurants? Why not other businesses and activities?
What a great comparison!!! Your logic is sensational!No.
Covid is spreading in living rooms and kitchen tables. If you’re gonna make it illegal to eat at a restaurant’s table then make it illegal to eat at your neighbor’s table. If not then stfu and stop blaming bars/restaurants while stopping at your sister’s house for coffee Saturday mornings.
Only if your willing to give up your income.
It's so easy for some to make these decisions when they aren't monetarily affected.

Depends on the location, probably.
I haven’t eaten inside a restaurant in nearly 8 months. However, I will go inside a restaurant to get something to go without concern.
My entire anti-COVID strategy has been to move around and not stay in one place too long, especially indoors. I miss going out to eat, but I’m not going to plant myself in one spot for an hour. So it’s takeout or bust, regardless of what the rules are for dine-in.
Are there places that are not following distancing requirements? Every place I have been in has been, and still is, doing so. (Note - I am not really a "bar" visitor, so my experience would be regular restaurants and bar/grills.)
Also, my understanding is that whatever additional COVID cases we are seeing are not tracing back to restaurants. If that is so, then it would really be silly to shut down something that isn't leading to infections.
at one point, there was a report that something like 30% of recent positives were from people that had eaten in a restaurant in the last two weeks. That's been a couple of weeks so it's certainly possible that is not the case still today. I thought that the limitations had been lifted so I could be wrong.
The bar and restaurant limitations are still in place. They are the only businesses being required to limit capacity and ensure social distancing.
From what I've heard, the majority of the transmission is gatherings of friends and family. Those who feel comfortable enough around each other to not wear masks and spend time in extended close contact with them.
That'll be great for business. 🙄No. Don’t want the covid? Stay home. Totally voluntary to go to these places.
Turns out, it's the teachers catching it outside of school and potentially putting kids at risk.
