Investing.com -- Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) said it would close another 14 stores in Florida amid rising Covid-19 cases in the state.

The closures on Friday come a day after the company shut seven locations in the Houston area, also because of rising virus cases.

Apple began opening its stores in May following weeks of Covid-related shutdowns, but the iPhone maker has had to reevaluate store operations given outbreaks of the virus in certain states. 

Shares of Apple rose 1.3% on Thursday.

78,000 deaths from the flu last year in the US. And that's with vaccination. Now, doesn't corona look lamer to you? No vaccine, no real lockdowns, and a toll of just over 100,000. Is it worth all that panic?
Death rate is low fortunately.. The problem is that most people with the flu don’t need hospitalization while Covid do. Is it so complicated to understand?
Lol farmer-state-boys *facepalm
They did need hospitalization! Those deaths were mostly in the hospital. People don't die of the flu at home! Please read up.
Hope they go out of business.
They should close whole states, it is already late.
