CONCORD — The restaurant industry is proposing a registry of customers be kept for 21 days to help in future contact tracing for COVID-19 if needed.
It would simply ask for a customer at a table to provide a name and phone number to help with contacting them if a case of the deadly virus is diagnosed among employees or patrons.
