I have read through this entire thread and can't bring myself to add to the arguments presented because no one seems to listen to anyone who has a different outlook that they already have anyway. i will only add one piece of information; namely that most COVAD-19 deaths are related to pneumonia infections, so I just got an pneumonia vaccine. They are available.
Visiting audio stores?
This is probably the last concern on many people's minds, so I'm raising this just in case anyone feels like relaying their experience.
I've become pretty cautious about where I go and why. So, for me, I'm not going to any audio stores to listen to gear, out of caution about the virus. I do feel concern for these stores and how it will impact them. Are folks going? Anyone running an audio store who wants to comment? How are you coping? Are you changing any policies or running any more sales online? Changes in trial periods to help more people try out gear remotely?
Again, this is a minor concern given the larger dimensions of this virus situation, but I thought I'd reach out with a question.
