“Nowadays a facility or building will be probably among the tens of thousands running at anywhere from zero to reduced occupancy because of Covid-19.
As occupancy climbs through phased small business operations and contributes to regular, crucial measures are necessary to deal with the protection of everybody going into the facility.
