At least 60 Michigan restaurants are defying state orders and remaining open for indoor dining.
Owners said they don t believe public health warnings about the dangers of coronavirus, The Washington Post reported.
Many say they can t afford to operate without indoor dining.
Some restaurants in Michigan are refusing to abide by state-mandated measures to quell the spread of the coronavirus, claiming the virus is over-politicized and the science untrustworthy, the Washington Post reported. I don t think it s as bad as they re saying it is, David Koloski owner of the Sunrise Family Diner told the Post. The whole thing with the coronavirus is political. I think Democrats are dug in and unwilling to move on this.

Print article HOWELL, Mich. - It’s a Monday morning and the Sunrise Family Diner is full. Retirees in jeans and plaid sit by the window, chatting over coffee and the local newspaper. A sign posted at the entrance urges customers to wear masks, but some don’t. They get seated anyway, within arm’s length of strangers in other booths.
