"the vigo county health department"..

Is helping to explain "the food establishment guidelines".

"officials say"..

"bosses" should ask employees "daily" about fevers, coughs, and other signs of illness.

They should also ask "about potential exposure to covid-19".

//// "employees" need to wear masks.

"health officials"..

Recommend..

That we all wear them when in public.

/////// there cannot be "a waiting area".

Establishments should use cell phones, pagers, or, intercom systems. //// "employees" have to hand out items "at self-serve stations" like: drink fountains.

"restaurants" will have to open at "50"-percent capacity.

"the health department"..

Explained..

"what that means".

///// ////// so, that means they need to move some chairs and tables around or blocked off making sure people are spaced out well.

They can't have tables of more than six people, they have to change their beverage stations, so customers cannot self serve anything, condiments or beverages.

/////// no more than "6"-people can sit together at a time.

"if" you have any questions about your business..

You should call "your local health department".
