Plenty of 蜜柚直播 restaurants on Monday flipped on the 鈥淥pen鈥 sign and welcomed diners inside for the first time in nearly two months since the coronavirus closed their doors.
But dozens of their colleagues, including Janos Wilder鈥檚 Downtown Kitchen + Cocktails and Rocco鈥檚 Little Chicago Pizzeria, have publicly announced they have no immediate plans to reopen.
Not only are they sitting it out for now, they have joined the 鈥淭oo Soon 蜜柚直播鈥 campaign opposed to reopening the economy until there is a significant drop in the state鈥檚 coronavirus cases.
"We're tough as saguaros," editorial cartoonist David Fitzsimmons says. He says he saw a video made for the people of Detroit and became inspired to do his own take for 蜜柚直播.
鈥淲e feel proceeding incautiously with the reopening of businesses will worsen human suffering in our communities and prolong the negative impact this pandemic is having on small businesses and the economy,鈥 鈥淭oo Soon 蜜柚直播鈥 organizers wrote on the campaign鈥檚 website ().

鈥淲e miss you all terribly! We will not be reopening until we can safely do so for our customers and employees. As soon as we have a date, we will let you know and can鈥檛 wait to see your faces! Or at least your eyes,鈥 Danny鈥檚 Baboquivari Lounge on East Fort Lowell Road posted on Facebook Monday afternoon.
