Empty plates are stacked on a counter at a Waffle House that closed due to COVID-19, March 29, 2020, in Mobile, Alabama. Waffle House, which operates chains in the United States, is known for being open 24/7/365, but some Waffle Houses across the country closed to prevent the spread of COVID-19 while others moved to takeout-only. Restaurants around Alabama closed their dining rooms, with some continuing curbside and drive-thru service, to prevent the spread of COVID-19, an infectious coronavirus first identified in Wuhan, China in 2019. The World Health Organization declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern on Jan. 30, 2020, upgrading it to a pandemic on March 11, 2020. More than 722, 000 people had been diagnosed with the virus worldwide as of March 29, 2020, with new cases added daily. Alabama had 827 cases and nine deaths as of March 29, 2020. Waffle House is so prevalent in the United States that the Federal Emergency Management Agency uses an informal metric called the “Waffle House Index” to gauge how badly areas are affected during disasters. Closed restaurants like this one are code red, while code yellow restaurants are operating with a limited menu. (Photo by Carmen K. Sisson/Cloudybright)
