That is still a good idea, to have people work from home. Please have people do that. Number three, want you to shop once a week. Dont take the family with you when you go shopping. Be efficient, go to the store, get back. Four, help kids socially distanced by keeping them at home to play, avoid group sports, and to make sure that you are avoiding the playground.

Businesses sell memberships and they bring somebody in to do coaching, thats different, but no organized team sports
