Thanks for the response Jeff

I think the most important folks to test right now are healthcare workers and while there are some exceptions most of them are being tested.  Next would be essential workers that can't social distance.  We can do better there.  I agree asymptomatic is a tough nut to crack.  That's why it's recommend that folks wear masks when they go out.  While there has been talk about people being tested before they can go out mainly in Italy no country has actually implemented that policy.  On the first two points there is a middle ground to do more than we are right now (mainly for folks who can't social distance) but not as much as what you are and mainly other Ds are talking about in my view.

While there is an extreme element that wants things to go back to normal I think most of us on the open economy side understand the need for masks and social distancing.  That's all layed out in phase 1 of the 3 phase reopen plan which again can and should start happening in most of the country in my view.    [/quote]

Phase One includes the opening of health clubs. I really have no idea how that can be done safely. But, that's what happens when the owner of Equinox is able to get Trump on the phone. I suspect that many governors will ignore Trump's phases and implement their own guidelines.

Gyms already have a ton of alcoholic based wipes. You’re supposed to wipe it down each time you use it. So the guidance is there. It’s just not enforced.

As long as it’s enforced, I see no issue to reopen the gyms.

It’s not just wiping down, but droplets from people panting everywhere. All the equipment would have to be 6 ft apart.  Even then, it seems nuts.
