YUBA CITY, Calif. - California state restrictions banning restaurants from offering sit-down meals have not yet been lifted, but you wouldn’t know that in downtown Yuba City, where families queued cheerfully for tables at the Happy Viking Sports Pub and Eatery.
The family, who were not wearing masks, ordered burgers and greeted friends at the bustling restaurant. The couple said they were not worried about contracting the virus while out and about. Sandee Drown, who owns the Happy Viking with her husband Chris, wore a black mask with the logo of the San Francisco Giants baseball team on it. Her staff also wore masks, but customers did not.
Aware that moves to re-open the economy have taken on a political tinge, with some Republicans pushing against restrictions imposed by the Democratic governor, Drown said that the involvement of health director Phuong Luu gave her confidence that re-opening would be safe. Vocal groups of protesters, including right-leaning groups and anti-vaccination activists, have crowded the grounds of the state capitol in Sacramento, demanding that social and economic life be allowed to resume.
