[quote="mario"]I won't send an email to users about the virus, I'm sure everyone got it from just about any company you've dealt with... So I will post my concerns here. Aside from health concerns, the second biggest concern is an economic one. Some data suggests 20% of small businesses already laid off at least some workers. For us in ecommerce, we are extremely lucky. Business may go down, but it will never drop from 100% to 0. Maybe to 50%, but it's survivable. However anyone in retail sector, carpenters, hairdressers, electricians, builders, and many other professions... this will be very hard. My only hope is that there will be a solution before too many businesses go bankrupt. Recovery will be slow, not overnight, and some economists suggest it may take years. I wish all the Gixen users, and everyone in general, that you stay healthy. The rest will be resolved eventually.[/quote]
