Yes. If/When a second wave hits, then there will be a second sheltering in place. Or a third wave.

No, just accept it and move on.
Yep. Just like mass shootings.

good point. It doesn't make sense to require people to wear masks in public everywhere but the dang gym.

You are right. I apologize. People care about campgrounds! It was an oddly specific question from a reporter when no details were being given about much broader categories like daycares/schools etc.

Temper your expectations.
unfortunately, we have hit the bad combo of people undergoing some level of discomfort for 8-9 weeks by mid May AND the start of summer. It is going to be impossible without Spain style “it’s literally illegal to leave your home u less it’s for food” lockdowns to keep Americans inside in summer. We are a selfish country and don’t withstand any level of sacrifice gracefully. Basically, it’s the worst time of year to try to keep selfish Americans inside and they’ve already given their constitutions can by now. So states are just going for it knowing nobody is going to follow it much longer anyway. It’s pathetic but as a country we will just accept a daily death toll of 1500 a day in perpetuity and it’ll fade into background noise while we have BBQs.
What hysteria. You know what this country will emerge a lot stronger than a place that annihilates its economy to save the elderly.

yeah, that's what he said. gyms would be open with more cleaning or something. how could a gym like gold's or lifetime keep people six feet apart? and have the staff to clean everything after each use? its silly. Or a big gym can be open but its kid camp is closed? that's not logical.
It’s completely logical the kids area is closed. Inconvenient, but smart. No. You’re equipment won’t be cleaned enough and there won’t be adequate distancing unless they switch to workouts by appointment.
how would a large gym run exercise by appointment only?
Exactly. It can’t. No one cares how to make it work. They just want it open and safe for them personally. This is why governors are leaving it to the businesses to sort.
