Many big shopping companies are offering dedicated shopping hours for those at most risk for COVID-19.
On Monday, Shoppers Drug Mart was one of few Loblaws stores offering a dedicated shopping time for seniors and people with disabilities in a less hectic environment.
Since then, many companies have also decided to provide designated hours those most vulnerable and to allow for social distancing, as recommended by health officials.
