Apple is now closing all Apple Retail stores in metropolitan Melbourne following the drastic increase in Coronavirus cases. As Victoria prepares to return to lockdown, many businesses including Apple are forced to close their doors.
Apple Highpoint located in Maribyrnong was the first store to close on July 2 as the suburb was hit with cases, deeming the store unsafe to the public. From July 9, Apple retail stores in Chadstone, Southland, Fountain Gate, and Doncaster will close, only operating for store pickup and appointment-only service.
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced on the 7th of July, Melbourne will head into a six-week lockdown effective as of 11:59 PM on July 8.
80 stores in the United States have also been close in states most affected by the recent increase in COVID-19 cases.
Please remember to stay safe and stay home if you can. If you need to leave your home please protect yourself and others by wearing a face mask or cover if possible and keeping a safe distance of 1.5 meters/5 FT apart.
