That is the point of government because individuals can NOT protect other individuals as well as a regional or federal government can! .......Government 101.

The delivery drivers, the people working in the warehouse/shipping and the workers loading up the trucks are around their fellow coworkers and they do sometimes have interactions with the public.
Florida was absolutely correct in their approach. They protected their most vulnerable citizens in the LTCs, first and foremost, and then they reopened businesses, government offices and got the kids back to their physical schools. Florida is the gold standard for how things should have been handled.
There are states that have had their kids out of school so long that they aren't even clear where some of their students are anymore. The kids have completely checked out of distance learning and are off doing...whatever....bored kids with nothing to do...do. It's quite the train wreck.
