Sadly, with reliance on brief media reports some will put into action their own scheme on how to combat it, or just hide behind a banner as an excuse to cause trouble anyway.

If you read, notice how insurance companies decline to cover!
I don't know if it is dangerous. But I would certainly appreciate if people were forced to document safety, before they are allowed to implement installation. It is deeply worrying in my view.
What we are witnessing is big capital trampling anything under foot. This lockdown is going to destroy mainly smaller businesses, while the bigger get bailed out.
Our whole way of life is under serious threat.

Put forward your suggestion on how to save smaller businesses or your suggestions to an alternative to the lock down.

Don't have a remedy for the second part, but for the first part it would be a huge help and a suitable hedge against business interruption if those small businesses took care to operate within monetary safety guidelines.

So many business startups are on a bank loan based on a guesswork figure of hoped-for profitability - together with the first year's stock. That loan is usually with the security of the domestic house. Optimism springs eternal.

That's why the banks are so ready, a sure-fire good risk - for them. It's also worth noting that even the ubiquitous unsecured loan has conditions - more often than not never read. One of those conditions is very nearly always an unlimited liability for security. Like paddling a holed canoe over a weir.
