Atlantans Begin To Adapt To Social Distancing

Residents step on measured tape placed outside a supermarket last week to practice social distancing as a precautionary measure against the spread of the coronavirus in Manila, Philippines. Just like people across the world, Atlantans also are dealing with closed businesses, keeping a distance from each other when they do have to go out and adapting to changes.

It’s been a little over a week of social distancing for Atlantans, with jobs and lives disrupted.

Last week, people experienced rules getting stricter, as some places — including the city of Atlanta — moved to close or limit some businesses. Other Georgia cities and counties have done the same.

WABE asked how people are doing with social distancing so far, and what they hope for this coming week.
