I can tell you that if I were a business owner, I would make a calculated decision based on my perception of all the variables; the value of keeping workers working (and getting paid), the need to participate in slowing the spread of infection, the public image outcome from either decision, etc...

There is a tricky balancing act that maximizes economic output while keeping the rate of infections below our health facilities capacity to treat them. That balancing act must be individually assessed at each locality, since areas aren't impacted proportionately.
