Gov. Andrew Cuomo confirmed on Friday all indoor dining in New York City will be suspended again indefinitely, prompted by a continual rise in CCP virus cases and hospitalizations throughout the city and state. The three-term governor said earlier this week that if COVID-19 hospitalizations in the state keep rising, restaurants would likely face new restrictions. COVID-19 is the disease the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus causes. Cuomo, a Democrat, said during a press conference in Albany the number of hospitalizations still hasn’t stabilized as of Friday, and starting next Monday, indoor dining will be suspended in the city. “Hospitalizations have not stabilized, and with a rising infection rate and NYC’s density, this means that indoor dining is too high of a risk,” the governor said, adding that takeout, delivery, and outdoor dining will still be allowed to continue. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Twitter he fully supports Cuomo’s decision to ban indoor dining, amid the second wave of CCP virus cases hitting the city. The mayor also added he is aware many restaurant owners are struggling, but that officials “can’t allow this virus to reassert itself in our city.
