A few months ago, we asked you about how the Coronavirus pandemic was affecting your business. You
joined hundreds of thousands of small businesses in providing valuable information on how the Coronavirus
pandemic has affected various business activities and geographic areas. These responses gave essential realtime data to local, state, and federal officials (such as the Small Business Administration) to aid in decisionmaking.
We would like to get an update on how your business is doing. We use responses from businesses like yours to
summarize data for similar industries and geographic areas. Help us understand what has or has not improved.

Administration) to aid in decision-making.
It’s not too late to share your experience. What does your situation look like now? Help us understand how
