Interestingly a lot of these measures are viral (in a good way). There isn't a central czar of grocery store layouts distributing plans for plastic barriers. Someone either went to another store or saw a photo and said "Oh, that's clever", then field expedience'd up 30 of them.

This is exactly how it looks in my small town in Canada. We’re taking it seriously, also riding bikes and paddle boarding in the sun all weekend: those things are not mutually exclusive.
