Apple closes

The Apple stores in Dubai have queues that lap around corners, pretty much all year long. You need to make appointments to get your products fixed, or even just to shop. It’s such an in-demand location that they felt the need to temporarily close for a few days due to COVID-19 cases spiking.

Apple has always taken the necessary precaution to keep shoppers safe like social distancing sticks to keep everyone alert, sanitization around the clock, face-masks for those who need it, and a limit on stores capacity.
