They simply don't care.

However, when the second wave hits due to their shortsighted fixation on the economy, we may very well see folks doing their own version of self isolation and not going out much to buy anything beyond immediate needs. Then when the all clear is sounded for real, it will be very tough to get people back out. I expect this mess to go on for 2 years short term and perhaps 5-10 long term.
