All of these steps have already been going on at my local Whole Foods for almost two weeks now. I don't know if it was a single-store thing or a broader Whole Foods thing, but it has been weird to me seeing people harp on Amazon's response to this when the Whole Foods near me has been the only business seemingly implementing any safety measures.

It was weird at first, but everything went smoothly after the initial weirdness of people obliviously walking past the line in front of the store and trying to go inside only to be told to turn around and stand in line.

I am hoping more grocery stores near me are taking similar steps. This was the first time I've gone to the store in 2 weeks, so it's possible others are doing the same as well by now. The last time I went to a bigger store near me (Marianno's) was 3 weeks ago and they weren't doing any steps like this or limiting items per purchase yet.

The Trader Joe’s that is 50 feet from me has been like this for the last two weeks as well. So likely fairly common across that chain.

It's not weird at all to me.

Amazon's treatment of warehouse workers and their treatment of customers are wildly different.

Reddit has been plastered with reports from Amazon warehouse workers that they have had temperature checks and PPE (except for masks due to shortages) for weeks now. It doesn't seem to be that different.

It just seems to be on a case-by-case (or per location) basis, while the media seems to be just choosing the locations where there isn't such measures and extrapolating wildly.

Any sources? Or at least 1-2 subreddits where one can read Amazon warehouse workers public discussions?
