With China being a major economy for tech giants, the effects of the coronavirus are being felt throughout the world. Phone launches have been delayed and the MWC 2020 trade show has been canceled altogether. However, these setbacks have not prevented Apple from resuming its operations. After the company opened up five retail outlets in the Beijing area, a few more have slowly started resuming business.

Apple’s website says that 10 more stores that were shut down due to the coronavirus will be re-opened from February 19. These include stores in Chengdu, Dalian, Guangzhou, Quingdao, and Shanghai. However, they will only operate for limited business hours for now. Previously, a similar protocol was followed for Beijing, where retail outlets resumed activity on February 14. As with the Beijing stores, customers will most likely be requested to wear masks and get their temperature checked before entering the newly opened outlets.
