+52,263 cases today and govt decides to open up gyms?

It may be hard to understand but gyms, restaurants and malls are places of employment. How would you feel if the source of your income was shut down because it is risky? All places with humans in employment are at risk of being venues of CoViD transmission, if we shut them down then everyone except those able to work from home would be unemployed. Have some empathy for those less economically able than you.

There is not much anyone can do at this point apart from using masks and social distancing. A lockdown can't go on forever, we are not a western country capable of giving cash handouts to almost a billion people. We cannot print money like the US. Stay at home if you can, let others go out if they want to as long as they take precautions.
