I hope all the gym (and other small business) owners who voted for Doug Ford because he is "good for business," remember this and vote him out.

Gyms could have stayed open if they were given safer protocols to follow, like masks on at all times, for example.

@junctionette I don't really think so. Covid binds to ACE-2 receptors in your lungs. When you exercise, the volume of air exchanged increases A LOT and the velocity of the air going through your mouth (and any mask in front of it) increases a ton too. That means that viruses could be expelled and inhaled much much easier. When combined with the sweat and touching of gym equipment, it's just not a good idea.
