19. I agree with closing indoor restaurants, bars and gyms. Not so much with hair salons and malls

Since the U.S. Govt isn't helping us out, people here need work so we have to strike some sort of balance. I got my hair cut one since this started, and the shop was very careful about wearing masks, separating patrons and making everyone wait outside. We went to Macy's last week looking for furniture and there were so few people at the mall, and as long as people wear masks, I don't think it's a substantial risk. In addition, open-air malls and shops are still allowed to operate.

I see a lot of towns and restaurants are expanding open-air dining, which I think is good. We need to see more creativity like this, drive-in movies and concerts, etc.

Glad to see LAUSD and San Diego County decided to cancel all in-person school. That was a disaster waiting to happen.
