COVID-19 大流行造成了前所未有的破坏，尤其是在零售业。如果网上无法满足基本需求，或者放宽了更严格的措施，顾客必须亲自前往商店。这自然会增加易感人群（顾客或员工）被感染的风险。在保持商店的经济生存能力的同时，必须尽可能降低这种风险。因此，我们探索并比较了 COVID-19 在涉及人与人互动的不同购物情况下的传播情况：(i) 自由流动、非结构化购物； (ii) 结构化购物（例如排队）。我们研究 (i) 或 (ii) 中哪一个可能更适合最大限度地减少特定商店中 COVID-19 的传播，但受到商店几何形状等限制；民众遵守当地准则；以及商店组织者可能采取的其他安全措施。我们得出一系列结论，例如单向自由移动优于双向购物，并且只要能够很好地防止感染，服务器的数量应该最大化。
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruption, particularly in retail. Where essential demand cannot be fulfilled online, or where more stringent measures have been relaxed, customers must visit shop premises in person. This naturally gives rise to some risk of susceptible individuals (customers or staff) becoming infected. It is essential to minimize this risk as far as possible while retaining economic viability of the shop. We therefore explore and compare the spread of COVID-19 in different shopping situations involving person-to-person interactions: (i) free-flowing, unstructured shopping; (ii) structured shopping (e.g. a queue). We examine which of (i) or (ii) may be preferable for minimizing the spread of COVID-19 in a given shop, subject to constraints such as the geometry of the shop; compliance of the population to local guidelines; and additional safety measures which may be available to the organizers of the shop. We derive a series of conclusions, such as unidirectional free movement being preferable to bidirectional shopping, and that the number of servers should be maximized as long as they can be well protected from infection.
