They are deemed to offer the greatest boost to the crippled economy, but the smallest risk of transmitting the disease. ⚠️ Read our coronavirus live blog for the latest news & updates To ensure they are safe, all premises will first have to undergo revamps to ensure social distancing, by installing screens or big distances between tables.
