A German café that reopened to the public after the country eased its lockdown restrictions has taken a novel approach to social distancing. The café’s customers were asked to wear hats constructed from swimming pool noodles to make sure they remained sitting 5 feet apart.
Café & Konditorei Rothe in Schwerin, Germany, went viral for its gimmick. After café owner Jacqueline Rothe, 52, posted a photo of her hat-toting customers on Facebook on May 9, 2020, hundreds flocked to comment on the humorous sight.
