San Francisco: Tech giant Apple has shut several retail stores around the United States owing to the rising Covid-19 infections among staff members, reported media platforms. Apple has also reinstated its mask policy and delayed plans to resume office for all of its workers. The company this month shut one of its retail stores in Texas after at least four of its staff members were found Covid-19 positive, the media reported. According to NBC News, the Apple store in Southlake, Texas, was closed following an outbreak of positive Covid cases among staff members.
