I believe in science, trust experts, and have spent the past week self-quarantining and yelling at my kids to wash their hands. But I was still floored when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that gatherings should be put off until May 15. I am a small-business owner with roughly 75 employees. Like most of my business-owner friends, I had hope last week that we could all hunker down and get through this crisis quickly. But that hope has been extinguished by the restrictions on gatherings urged, and in some cases imposed, by the administration, the CDC and state governors.
May 15 is eight weeks away. How many of the officials setting emergency policy have ever run a small business? Very few, I suspect. To be clear: Two months is not a hiatus; it is a death sentence for small business.
