A wide welcome at the B&W Pharmacy greets patrons in Beverly with masks expected upon entry to keep the small business in compliance with state mandates for retail businesses.
It’s been a little over 10 months since the COVID-19 pandemic upended most aspects of daily life.
Business around the Muskingum Valley had to adjust then and keep adapting throughout the year to safety recommendations, changes in customer habits and inventory issues.
After moving completely to curbside-only business for about a month last spring, B&W Pharmacy in Beverly has found what passes for business as usual these days.
