'Last call' orders to maintain public health in restaurants and bars will hurt establishments financially and won't help to solve the problem, owners say.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has raised similar concerns about young people, saying it's difficult to maintain social distancing while under the influence of alcohol. The state recently cracked down on bars, suspending liquor licenses for businesses that violated Cuomo's executive orders.. "I respect your right to party, I fully respect it. I would enshrine it in the state law, if you want to know. You have the right to party, but let's be smart about it.
"I think that motivated the early-closure policy in Colorado, to see if we could get people to kind of shorten up their duration of time," Mays said. "We were seeing people spending hours in these bar settings." Michigan's Malani said the risk could be reduced further by preventing people from congregating while waiting in line and by reducing capacity, ordering through cellphones and monitoring people's behavior.
"I think the days of really large parties, big house parties where everyone's crowded, I don't think those are going to happen as much," Malani said. "At the same time, these are young adults who have social needs. That's a part of their well being, too, and they do need to be interacting with other people."Some bar owners aren't convinced the new orders will have their intended effect.
