Alcohol to-go, food delivery: Restaurants adapt in the time of coronavirus

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam has banned all dining inside restaurants, and gatherings of more than 10 people anywhere in the state, in response to the CDC’s recommendations of social distancing in order to slow the spread of coronavirus, which requires people to stand at least six feet apart.
