COVID-19 cases in the region sees a sharp increase this week, some Kingston restaurant servers are now concerned for their health, being exposed to several customers a day while working — including tourists.“It is a little scary especially with the spike in cases in Kingston,” said Morgan Shields, a server at Dianne’s Fish Shack and Smokehouse in downtown Kingston.As part of their job, servers have to be in close contact with different people all the time.
That appears to come with its own challenges, as Shields says not all customers are local.“Probably more than half of our guests have been from out of town which we knew was going to happen which is a little scary,” Shields said.
