You can't contact trace if you don't know who's infectious. Essentially, yeah, you need to be able to rapidly test damn near everyone. |

He was terrified when the lockdowns began because he has more than $1 million in inventory when they started. But since Amazon has delayed all non-essential items, his business is absolutely booming and he's had his best month in two years. I'm sure there are other examples out there of people doing well since the beginning of the lockdowns, which leads me to believe that we'll see a fundamental shift in how businesses choose to operate moving forward. |

With food deliveries up, I think that most of those restaurants, if not all, will welcome Social Distancing scenarios because it's added cash AND makes it so their food supply isn't going to waste. |

The Studios have been flirting with Premium Video On Demand for years and now that Universal has released Trolls 2 to great success, while Disney is pushing to release their films shortly after a theatrical run on Disney+, the writing is on the wall for many of these chains. I'm not stating that the movie theater system is dead but it's been slowly dying for years, while streaming and the availability of high quality content is more accessible than ever and VOD and SVOD purchases are on the rise. |

And just because things are so awesome as it is, we've got a CO2 shortage threatening the beverage industry.

I can't speak for the others but Pizza Hut is wrong. Last numbers I looked at had Pizza Huts sales profit down 30%. This virus is hitting everyone in the restaurant business.
