8. Much business activity in the United States was shut down in Spring 2020 to help combat
the spread of COVID-19. In April and May, some businesses started to re-open, although
often under different circumstances. For example, in some locations restaurants that re-
opened had to limit their capacity to 50 percent of their normal capacity in order to facilitate
social distancing. Using online resources identify five business-related decisions related to
re-opening in late spring 2020. Describe each in terms of its associated conditions and if, in
your judgement, decision making was handled effectively.
