We would not like to see restrictions but are prepared if they happen, Wilkinson said.
The virus and subsequent clampdowns took a particularly large toll on restaurants, which initially had to survive with just carryout and delivery and then were forced to limited capacity. I am definitely concerned about the rise in cases. Our staff is vaccinated, but I am concerned some folks will return to avoiding indoor dining, said Brent Brashier, co-owner and chief barbecue officer of Doc s Smokehouse and Craft Bar. I really donât believe we will get into another forced closure situation â I donât believe you can put the toothpaste back in the tube, so to speak.
