Chicago and suburban areas of Cook County moved to Tier 1 mitigations on Jan. 23, allowing bars and restaurants to resume indoor dining.
Craig Klugman, head of DePaul’s Covid-19 Response Team and a health sciences professor, said a combination of factors led to the decision to resume indoor dining.
“The determination to move to Tier 1 is allegedly based on the city meeting certain metrics,” Klugman said. “I suspect there was also some political pressure by restaurateurs and retailers because the pandemic has been rough on their businesses.”
Under the city’s new rules, restaurants and bars are open to seat guests at no more than 25 percent capacity or a 25-patron max, whichever is less. Tables also aren’t allowed to exceed four people dining indoors. If food isn’t being served, indoor service is to be suspended.
