Life isn't without risks. We should each have the freedom to assess the risks for ourselves. My wife loves reading by the pool and taking the occasional dip in the water. She misses her exercise and yoga classes at MVP. Why should she have to give up those things because someone else fears them. Wouldn't it make more sense for the fearful person to avoid them?

They aren't closed to accommodate the fearful.
Establishments and activities where social distancing cannot or WON'T be maintained are the main reason for the closures.
Just like the one in one out and one way traffic in grocery stores......is not for the fearful.
The needed separation would most likely not be attained if left up to individuals to make their own judgement.
