Make Gyms and Fitness centres an essential service.
Allow gyms and fitness centres to open throughout the lockdown as being fit and healthy lowers risk of covid 19
Since the start of lockdown many people mental health has deteriorated without access to a gym. Many people I've spoken to use it as a way to let off any stress they may have accumulated or just to feel like they're not trapped inside their mind 24/7. Every gym that I've been to has abided by your rules and the rate of infection has been almost nonexistent especially when compared to other places deemed essential.
