Went to a Sears store in Laredo, Texas on Wednesday May 13th. hardly any customers. Just a few employees working in the store. The auto center was the same too.

Looks pretty specific to me. They used to have multiple stores in some of the markets (Houston, San Antonio) but they didn't by the end of February 2020.

The virus was first sighted in 2019, therefore it is called Covid-19 and not Covid-20.

And they will be empty of shoppers just like they were before the pandemic.

Interesting. So why did HR send an email saying that Sears will not reopen until May 31st at the soonest?
