As the weeks go by, the Apple Stores that have been closed since mid-March, little by little return to normal, although some of them (those located in the United States) have been forced to close their doors due to incidents caused by the death of George Floyd at the hands of the police.
Many of the stores that Apple has open in Europe (except France and the United Kingdom), have reopened, including those of Spain. The next stores that Apple has throughout the world that will reopen their doors are those that it has in the United Arab Emirates, following a new protocol to stay safe from coronavirus.
According to the Khaleej Times, the Apple Store located in the Dubai, Emirates and Yas shopping centers will reopen their doors tomorrow, June 8. Like the rest of the stores that have already opened their doors after the pandemic, these will do so on a reduced schedule, from 11 in the morning to 7:30 in the afternoon and will focus on customer service, inviting customers users to what keep shopping through the Apple Store online.
All customers who visit the stores will have to answer a series of questions about their health, wear a mask, allow their temperature to be measured with a non-contact thermometer and wear gloves. In addition, the entrance of people has been reduced considerably to be able to maintain a safe distance to avoid possible contagions.
When these 3 Apple Stores reopen tomorrow, the number of stores open outside the United States will rise to 145 of the 239 that the Cupertino-based company has spread outside the United States. In the United States, 136 of the 271 Apple Stores are currently open.
