Retailers are closely monitoring the global spike in COVID-19 cases in December and if any additional measures might be undertaken to safeguard employees and shoppers.
“Apple was among the first to shut down last March 2020 and was the longest to wait before reopening all of its U.S. fleet; even then some international locations were still closed into 2021,” said Craig Johnson, president of Customer Growth Partners, the research and consulting firm.
“More broadly, nobody else we know was closing due to Omicron, but once we get past the ‘second season,’ we think some other stores in hard-hit areas could temporarily close in January and early February, normally the slowest time for most retailers outside of home and home improvement [sectors],” said Johnson.
“We offer vaccine appointments at nearly all CVS at Target locations and provide paid time and free Lyft rides to team members when they get their vaccines and boosters,” the spokesperson said. At the Neiman Marcus Group, “While we don’t have plans to temporarily close stores at this time, we will continue to maintain our focus and will remain ready to react and adjust as needed in order to ensure the safety of our customers, associates and brand partners,” a spokesperson said.

Judge extends Maxwell deliberation hours, citing 'astronomical' COVID-19 spikeNEW YORK (Reuters) -The judge in British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell's sex abuse trial said the jury would deliberate for at least one hour longer than usual if needed on Tuesday due to an 'astronomical spike' in COVID-19 cases in the New York area. 'We now face a high and escalating risk that jurors and/or trial participants may need to quarantine,' U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan told prosecutors and defense attorneys outside the presence of the jury, which had begun deliberating again on Tuesday morning. Maxwell, 60, is accused of recruiting and grooming four teenage girls to have sexual encounters with the late financier Jeffrey Epstein between 1994 and 2004.
