At least it's not elderly lives he's not giving a shit about this time. :rolleyes:
A shame that any businesses are being taken out as a result and inability of making money due to regulations and no fault of their own. That's the folks getting ignored by those instituting these mandates.

NYC’s Oldest Restaurant Survived The American Revolution And A Bombing. Its Owner Says Cuomo’s COVID Restrictions Could Be Its Downfall
A crack runs down the middle of the restaurant’s 200-year-old wall mural – a small reminder of when a terrorist group bombed the building in 1975. Each room of the tavern – and there are many – is steeped in history and tradition.
One room boasts the Dingle Whiskey Bar, named lovingly after a town in Ireland. Another portion of the tavern includes a handcrafted fireplace and a chandelier imported the Emerald Isle. An old musket sits atop a mantle in yet another one of the historic restaurant’s renowned dining rooms.
Fraunces Tavern is a renovated historic building and restaurant located on Pearl Street in New York City’s Financial District. The oldest restaurant in the city, it was built in 1719 and has been operating as a tavern since 1762. The restaurant has toughed it out in the city that never sleeps for over 250 years, through the American Revolution, Hurricane Sandy and much more.
Fraunces Tavern’s owner, Eddie Travers, spoke with the Daily Caller about the one thing that could bring the city’s oldest restaurant down – Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s COVID-19 restaurant restrictions. Cuomo announced a ban on indoor dining earlier in December, just as winter rolls through the Big Apple.
“He [Cuomo] always talked about the science … This is not scientific,” Travers said of the indoor dining ban.
Just 1.43% of COVID-19 cases are coming from restaurants and bars, according to statewide contact tracing data. Households and social gatherings, on the other hand, account for almost 74%.
