Can a barber have 10 customers inside the shop waiting their turn? Can the bus be filled to capacity? Reopening guidelines are either not created or not published. Burying your head in the sand is not a plan.
The plan of not having a plan is not a good plan.
As Mark Twain put it. It’s not wrong doing the right thing.

Every locality is supposed to come up with their own plans. Ours has been doing a great job and communicating in a very clear matter of fact way. All of those things you mentioned have been mentioned by our mayor and county judge for how to proceed.
Are you in Canada as your profile states? Perhaps things are quite different there.

There is plenty of correlation data available for unemployment vs mortality. The 40,000 is based off a study from the 70's I think. But even if that's wildly overestimated, your belief that every life should be saved is at odds with any increase.
People are going to die. They die every day. As Elizabeth Warren is dealing with the loss of her brother, we all deal with the loss of loved ones. Whether it be from a virus, old age, car accident, etc. At the average age of members here I'd bet most, if not all of us, have lost loved ones.
