As COVID-19 gaining more and more attention, restaurants begin to close down due to governmental restrictions to prevent public gathering. With the image of empty restaurants with tables and chairs being put up, these restaurants' funding are also slowly going empty. The attention to these restaurants are so important especially during the pandemic because we need these restaurants to survive otherwise all we will have left are food chains such as McDonald's.
