In Lakeview, Laugh Factory Chicago is staying the course as well. “What I’ve done, at least for the interim, is place a higher level of sanitary guidelines for my staff,” Laugh Factory Chicago president Curtis Shaw Flagg said. Among other precautions, any employees that handle food or drink are wearing gloves, and straws are now delivered still wrapped so that customers can unwrap their straws themselves. Flagg said he’s taking the idea of potential cancellations on a “case by case basis.” “The public health concern outweighs any bottom line for me personally,” he added.
