I Just Don't Get It

There are many things I just don't understand regarding what the President is telling us and what the State Governors are demanding of us. Below is my "I Just Don't Get It" list:

*  Why has it taken so long to open up some golf courses in some states and still closed in others? Because of my bad back, I don't play golf, but I know many who do. Golf is a sport where anywhere from 1 to 4 players play the game (not 10 like the President says you cannot have congregating). 

Golf is played outdoors. The 4 players have no reason to touch or go near (less than 6 feet) each other to play the game. There are no fans in close proximity to the players. One of the best ways to stay in shape and enhance your cardiovascular system is to walk 10,000 steps a day. Golfers walk that much playing 18 holes.

*  Supermarkets are open by order of the President and the Governors. Sooo, why do so many of them allow people to get closer than 6 feet from one another? Most importantly, why isn't mandatory for the people coming into the supermarket to wear a mask? I have three supermarkets that allow shoppers to shop without masks and the check-out people aren't required to wear masks and gloves. Those employees probably don't even get tested before their shifts.

* Many restaurants offer outdoor pick-up, but you can't go into the place. Are the employees that are cooking the food and delivering it to you, cleaning the place properly? Are the employees that are cooking the food and delivering it to you, wearing masks and gloves? Are the employees that are cooking the food and delivering it to you, being checked for the virus? The fact is, YOU DON'T KNOW BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GO INTO THE RESTAURANT. 

How about letting us in wearing a mask and gloves (and staying 6 feet away from others) so we can see for ourselves if this restaurant is trust-worthy.

*  Why can't the NBA start practicing and later playing games? There are 15 players on an NBA team. It is easy to test every one of them multiple times. Why can't they play games, without fans, in the stadium? This is a competitive sport. Players are playing against each other not against the fans. As shone by the largest number of homes ever watching (at home) the NFL Draft, that people want to watch sports even if there is nobody in the stands. 

Also, the league doesn't make its money from people in the stands, they make their money from TV and streaming. Start the NBA NOW because it will help sports fans from getting depressed (like we are now). I feel the same about football.
