The decision to only advise places to shut, only advise certain people to socially isolate, rather than actually legally mandate places and people do so has nothing to do with scientific or medical advice and is 100% political.
Either it's safe for these places to open or it isn't
And if it isn't order them to shut.
Put people's health and the well-being of small and medium businesses and their staff ahead of insurance company profits.
