Of all the different ways states and cities are fighting the coronavirus epidemic, the Belmont Sobeys grocery store in Edmonton, Canada could be the best we’ve read yet: Special shopping hours one day per week for seniors and those with mobility issues:

This is the same store that set aside toilet paper for seniors:

Every grocery store should do this:
This grocery store has an early hour (before people touch everything, spreading #COVID19) for seniors and at risk to shop when everything was just cleaned and with fewer people around.
What a great idea, every grocery store should take this easy step! https://t.co/iGqptsIFd2
