Bottom Line: Whatever one’s view of what public policy should look like at this stage of the pandemic, there’s something most can agree on. We don’t want to contract the coronavirus today. But here’s the thing, and from a point of logic – it’s especially remarkable to me. Everyday thousands of Floridians start the day healthy but end the day with COVID-19.

I’d imagine most would gladly redo their day leaving out what put them at risk given the opportunity. With that in mind here’s a medically vetted chart of daily activities based on risk:
While some of the high-risk activities aren’t currently options in South Florida, a few are...and would you have necessarily thought that working out in a gym would be riskier than playing football?
