The owner of Mooyah said business fell by up to 25% after NYC introduced
its vaccine mandate.
He said that he doubted rising Delta cases had caused the drop.
The vaccine mandate was "very polarizing" in comparison with past mask
mandates, he added.

The owner of a burger restaurant in downtown Manhattan said business
plunged by up to 25% in a week – and he blamed it on New York City's
vaccine mandate.

Art Depole, who co-owns the Mooyah Burgers, Fries, and Shakes restaurant
in Times Square, told Insider that the mandate was deterring people from
visiting his establishment.

This loss in business could cause his restaurant to raise prices, he said.

vaccine mandates yet: Get vaccinated or don't get paid


Under rules introduced last week, people need to provide proof of at
least one COVID-19 shot to eat at restaurants in New York City. Depole
estimated that sales at his restaurant were between 20% and 25% down
that week, with lunchtime and weekend traffic hit the hardest.

Rising cases of the Delta variant could also be putting people off from
eating out, Depole said. Sales have dropped at Mooyah restaurants in
tourist-heavy areas because the Delta variant has deterred people from
traveling, Natalie Anderson Liu, vice president of brand at Mooyah, told
Insider. And tourists usually make up just over half of all visitors at
the Times Square location, Depole added.

But he said that he didn't think worries about the Delta variant could
have caused the sudden drop in sales because Delta cases were already
high anyway.

"The previous week in which the Delta variant was still spreading was
far better in sales then last week was," Depole said.


"I believe, from speaking to people, that it's more because of the
mandate," he said.

The vaccine mandate was "very polarizing" in comparison with past mask
mandates, he added.

Restaurants that voluntarily enforced their own vaccine mandates told
Insider that some customers had left bad reviews and threatened to spit
on and cough at staff over the policy.

"I never had one incident with a customer who gave me a hard time when
they were asked to wear a mask," Depole said.

The restaurant industry is 'the easy target'
Depole said he understood the reasoning behind the vaccine mandate, but
that the restaurant industry was "the easy target" and being "unfairly
picked on."

"We're being singled out as someone who has to enforce this mandate
while other large retailers aren't having to go through the same type of
requirements that we are to allow customers to enter," he said.

An analysis published in Nature found that the majority of COVID-19
infections early in the pandemic could be traced to "superspreader"
locations, which included restaurants.

"The places that are the riskiest are restaurants, gyms, cafes, and
hotels," the study's co-author Jure Leskovec told Insider. "These are
all places where people are relatively densely packed together for a
long period of time."

But Depole said his restaurant is safe. "We have had zero cases of COVID
linked to our restaurant," he said.

Anderson Liu said that Mooyah introduced a COVID-19 checklist for all
its restaurants at the start of the pandemic, which includes sanitizing
restaurants every 15 minutes and screening staff for the coronavirus.

"So I can tell you that almost with a 100% certainty that our restaurant
is safer than most of the retail outlets that are not affected by this,"
Depole said.

>'14 Bible verses about Spiritual Hunger'

Such are the lies coming from the lying pens of the
http://bit.ly/terribly_hungry (Genesis 25:32) commentators.

That which is "spiritual" is independent of time so that there
would've been no reference to "now."

Therefore, the LORD is referring to physical hunger here instead of
the spiritual "hunger and thirst for righteousness" elsewhere in
Scripture.

Indeed, physical hunger can **not** coexist with physical thirst
because the latter results in the loss of saliva needed for physical
hunger.

It is when we hunger for food "now" (Luke 6:21a) that we are able to
eat food "now."

No such time constraints exist for "spiritual hunger."

Moreover, the perspective of Luke 6:21a through the eyes of a
physician (i.e. Dr. Luke) would be logically expected to be physical
instead of spiritual.

All glory ( http://bit.ly/Psalm117_ ) to GOD for His compelling you to
unwittingly demonstrate your ever worsening cognitive condition which
is tragically a consequence of His cursing (Jeremiah 17:5) you more
than ever.

Indeed, the righteous know to be satisfied (Luke 6:21a) with an omer

knowledge as evident by their eating until they are full (i.e.
satiated).

>Joel
>2:26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of

Indeed, an omer (32 ounces per Revelation 6:6) of manna is plenty

the shame of you, who are eternally (Mark 3:29) condemned.

Indeed, being filled (Psalm 107:9) with an omer (Exodus 16:16) of

full) is evil.

In the interim, you, who are eternally (Mark 3:29) condemned, will

(Jeremiah 17:5) by GOD.

The main reason for recommending vaccination is that the vaccines do

because neutralizing antibodies, whether from vaccination or

Most of them, especially the children, are thankfully not eternally

The vaccines are not approved yet for those under 12 years of age.

Though the survival benefit of the vaccines is not as large as for
adults, the potential benefit for children, who are at higher risk of
getting MISC post-COVID, still outweigh the risks associated with
vaccination.

In the interim, the only *healthy* way to stop the pandemic, thereby

The risk fior children from COVID-19 is vanishingly small.

Risk of death, yes. Risk of MISC and/or cognitive impairment (i.e.
