QUESTION BY THAI VIEWER:

WHAT DOES “BOARDED UP” MEAN?

ANSWER:

DESTROYED GLASS WINDOWS AND DOORS REPLACED WITH WOODEN BOARDS. 

WHAT THE MEDIA SHOWED THE NIGHT BEFORE

COMMENT BELOW BY JOCHEN UEBEL SAYS THAT BOARDING UP IS NORMAL CLOSING PROCEDURE IN MANHATTAN IN THESE TROUBLING TIMES AND THEREFORE NOT IN ITSELF EVIDENCE OF MAYHEM. 

IN THE FOX NEWS LINK JOCHEN PROVIDED WE READ: 

A growing scene for those who venture out into the streets of Manhattan these days is boarded up storefronts.  From luxury retailers to small bars, establishments that have no idea when they are going to be allowed to reopen are putting up protection over their glass doors and windows. The businesses have taken the unsightly measure in an effort to defend against the potential for civil unrest caused by the coronavirus and a lack of officers on the streets.
