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.

In a pinch separate the two plies and voila! - you’ve got two rolls! Problem solved! 🤗
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.
What I see amongst my neighbors is checking on each other and offering help.  Too bad our media and government don’t take the same approach of “how can we help and encourage” instead of “who is most to blame for this mess?!”    I haven’t seen anything before like what is occurring now in my 65 years of living.  I don’t blame anyone for being less than fully prepared for a one-in-a-lifetime-or-two event.  We cannot expect to have all of the supplies and medical equipment needed now, held in perpetual preparation for when this could happen.  I agree with those who say that short supplies should be conserved for those who most need them.  And I wish the 24 hour news cycles would do less blaming and catastrophizing and more helpful suggestions.  
I don't blame the President for pushing successfully to eliminate a permanent epidemic monitoring and command group inside the White House National Security Council (NSC) and another in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)—both of which followed the scientific and public health leads of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the diplomatic advice of the State Department.
I don't blame him for ordering the NSC's entire global health security unit shutdown.
As a result of this defunding: Dr. Luciana Borio, then the council's director of medical and biodefense preparedness, said in 2018: "The threat of pandemic flu is the number one health security concern. Are we ready to respond? I fear the answer is no.
 I don't blame him for saying just a few weeks ago that the virus was a hoax made up to take him down. I don't blame him for saying on:
January 22: He was not worried about a pandemic. "We have it totally under control. It's only 1 person coming in from China"
Feb 26: "Because of all we've done, the risk to the American people remains very low."
Feb 26:"We're going to be pretty soon at only 5 people. And we could be at just 1 or 2 people over the next short period of time." 
February 27 that the spread is not inevitable, that IF the disease spreads, he will put Pence in charge.
 Feb. 28: "I think it's really going well."
 Feb. 28: "It's going to disappear. One day, it's like a miracle, it will disappear."
 Feb. 28: "This is their new hoax.

March 17-"I always felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.

Now we are caught flatfooted while S. Korea tests over 10,000 people a day. Well, we are only now trying to get up to speed and we must all pull together----but we should have had testing for months. In America, we are aloud to speak the truth and place blame where it belongs.
