"We're basically open during the week to prep for the weekend," said Rachel Wyman, the owner of the artisan bread, specialty doughnut and treat shop in Montclair, New Jersey.

Without enough bakers to operate, she didn't have a choice. She made the decision Thursday to close down for a week to give the whole staff time to "get tested and come back healthy hopefully."
