Apple has reopened all 271 retail stores in the United States, according to news agency Reuters. For the first time in a year, all of the company’s stores in the country are available for visiting. Recall that most of them were closed as part of quarantine measures designed to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, which took the world by surprise in early 2020.
On March 14, 2020, Apple announced the closure of all of its retail stores outside of China.
