Gyms to be kept open during COVID-19
Allow gyms to be open with a reduced amount of members. Gyms follow strict guidelines and one of the few places that hold lower rates of COVID-19. Correct procedures and social distancing in place, gyms could remain open which would help and save the physical and mental well being of the country.
The gyms have a huge impact on not just physical health but mental health too. In such a stressful time people need a viable way to exercise. For a lot of people this could drastically improve and help with their mental health.
