Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, announced that the American
technology giant decided to temporarily close all its
stores outside China, as a precaution against the spread
of the new Corona virus.
“In our workplaces and societies, we must do our best to
prevent the spread of (Covid 19),” Cook wrote on his
official account on the “Tottier” website, Saturday.
He added: “Apple will temporarily shut down all stores
outside China until March 27, and will allocate $ 15
million to help recovery around the world.”
“We are moving in all our offices to flexible working
arrangements around the world outside of China. This
means that team members must work remotely if the
nature of their work permits,” said Cook.
