I'm more open than many to near-term local and phased relaxation of suppression. But why THESE openings first? https://twitter.com/GAFollowers/status/1252336091320983555
Places w indoor respiratory exertion like gyms? Places requiring close personal contact like hair and nail salons?
Low-margin businesses like restaurants that likely collapse if business drops 30% because of voluntary distancing?
(Who knows, maybe GA plans to pay half local restaurants' rent/payroll so they can stay open with only three tables? But probably not?)
Why not just ... regular stores? Electronics, books, garden, home supplies, places that can survive without being physically crowded.
I think I am guardedly OK with bowling alleys....? One family per lane and maybe you get to wear your own shoes?
