The travel and tourism industry around the world has been hit particularly hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. The U.S. city of Las Vegas, Nevada, a major tourist destination, is now turning to individual dining tents, food trucks and contactless takeout to try to survive the latest restrictions8 that limit indoor dining. Amid a surge of reported coronavirus cases hospitalizations and deaths in Nevada, Governor Steve Sisolak tightened9 restrictions on casinos and restaurants in late November. The governor ordered them to reduce capacity to 25 percent or 50 people, and extended the limits until after mid-January. The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports some (restauran...) restaurants are getting creative like setting up individual dining tents that have floor coverings, lighting10, a sound system and a heater.
