The answer is it doesn't!!
Example: If your happy ass has gone outside the house to buy food and other essentials since this started, then your risk will not be increased by going to more places (if YOU keep taking precautions)
As for the differences in deaths only suicides are different as that is a person doing something that WILL guarantee the end of their life.
A soldier a takes a higher RISK not a certain outcome. The real problem is that too many people are falsely equating more places = more risk and not understanding that if..... Precaution #1 works at the grocery store, then Precaution #1 will also work at some other business. No plan mentioned by anyone has said let's open everything and FORCE people to stand close together at a store and prohibit them from wearing PPE. If that was being said I'd fight that too, but what you're asking for is for others to suffer losing houses, jobs, family members to regular medical issues because you believe it somehow will make your mask and gloves better.
This is so easy.
If you're so worried about the virus.... Don't go outside.
Don't talk to anyone face to face.
Wear your PPE.
Don't do any work at an essential job due to increased risk [emoji849].
Do not touch cash.
Do not allow products into your safe space unless it's been sanitized.
And the most important thing is....
Enjoy PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY and enjoy not putting the boots to another person's livelihood.[emoji106]

Trump said it himself. This is a war against an invisible enemy.
Assuming he made a good point there, do you think it's wise to have your armies each randomly deciding on what it wants to do, whether to fight or to embrace the chance of getting slaughtered without proper preparation?
Wouldn't a coordinated / joint effort be a much better / winnable stratetagy?
You are saying each and everybody has the personal right to decide what he/she wants to do in the face of this pandemic, to open for business or to stay safe and at home.
Do you realize how much chaos that would actually create? How can you successfully contain this pandemic if you don't have a country wide plan in place?
Once you get the great machine of us economy rolling again with each state deciding on what it wants to do, closing or opening, without any central government strategy or leadership, I can tell you this much:
It will make everything much much worse.
Open the economy, sure, but open it smartly, and with a good strategy in place to prevent further infection.
Keep on calling the virus whatever name flows your boat, does not make it any less lethal. It only serves to place blame and divert people's attention on what they should be focusing on:
Contain the spread and flattening the curve.
I want to go back to business yesterday. Have employees to worry about and bills to pay. But I know how dangerous it is to start the interacton with people again, without a good prevention strategy in place.
There's state to state commerce, exhibitions, conventions, sales meetings, clients wanting to see your samples, your warehouses, your offce listings, the list goes on.
We need to develop a strategy that covers as much of the population as possible. And it better be comprehensive and enforceable.
I don't give a rats ass about your personal freedom to not use a mask. Stay at home if you don't want to wear one.
If you want to do business, put it on the minute you leave your house.
Use gloves whenever possible. There's new key like gadegets out there that allows you to points the touch pad screens without using your fingertips.
I live in California and I'm glad I have a governor who uses common sense and places peoples lives on top of everything else.
I only wish all the governors participate and make a joint effort and strategy on how to open the economy.
