In NYC, Restaurants built outdoor tents and with heaters so that they could operate their business serving food. Patrons have to remove their masks to eat and are essentially inside...just outdoors. Does this make any sense?
Edit* these tents are fully enclosed to stop the cold air from coming in. It's winter in NYC. Cold, wet and gloomey.

It makes sense if done to seat people at least two meters from eachother
?
It should be obvious by none that almost none of it makes sense, especially keeping schools closed.

No, it doesn't make any sense. Originally, they were just tables under tents, but as it got colder, they added walls, doors, windows and electricity. They basically just enclosed their sidewalks and everyone goes along with the idea that they're somehow magically free of the virus.

It's all for show....
In my neighborhood a 4,000 sq. ft. restaurant with 13 ft high ceilings remains shut down..... just up the street several bars have built tented "beer gardens" where about 100 people cram every night into a space just over 1,000 sq. ft...
The CDC and the great Dr. Fauci even warned that enclosed tents are actually just as bad if not worse transmission risks than indoor venues.... but for some reason THOSE warnings don't seem to get picked up by the pop media...

I assume it’s because of better ventilation.
