@mikevonmassow@TheHEALab HOWEVER, restaurants that had In-House Delivery were significantly less likely to close during the pandemic. Findings from @FRESHER_Canada project can be found at https://t.co/4pTvt0Jbbe **Stay tuned for long-awaited paper on this led by @WrayAJ to come out very soon!!!
@mikevonmassow Sad for gig workers who rely on those jobs, but as you say, not surprising. Contrary to pop opinion, @TheHEALab analysis of Ontario's food hospitality sector during the pandemic revealed that 3rd party delivery was not a significant factor in keeping restaurants from closing
