This is a very complicated problem and even if the country would reopen right now, we still face financial disaster. AND it isn't "fear of a disease" for many of us living in The Villages. The death rate of people over 80 who contract Covid-19 is 14%.

I see your complaint about "Freedom to practice my religion" as not valid and very trumped up. I have heard of only ONE church leader in Florida who insisted on holding church services with the social distancing ADVICE in place. Do you not think that an omnipotent creator would understand compassion for others by social distancing??
