I believe they will reopen but not for 12-18 months. The virus has to infect a minimum of 50-60% of the population to develop herd immunity, absent a vaccine. It will take 18 months for a vaccine IF one that works can be manufactured. So that means 200 million Americans have to be infected before the health officials will call it under control. And even at that point it’s still contagious. All bets are off if it mutates.
Unfortunately, I believe most spas will not reopen where they are now, since they are with a few exceptions, leased storefronts. The owners of the spas I know are freaking out because they have signed commercial leases with personal guarantees and don’t know how they will pay next month’s rent, let alone 12-18 months of it. They will default and be evicted. They also won’t get a bailout.
But there will be incredible pent up consumer demand after a year or so and spas should start to pop up all over again.
One thing that may happen in the interim is some girls will arrange with good customers to meet privately. Don’t worry, they have your number if you’ve ever called to make an appointment. Seeking Arrangements also will likely be flooded with new options.
Just my opinion. Hope I’m way off base. But the math says 18 months, not 2 weeks.
Good luck to all, my friends.
