"You may see this as a horrifying commentary on Americas blatant disregard for COVID-19. Or you may find it an encouraging sign that our world is not as permanently altered as we may have thought. Either way, much like how you might have felt about the world shutting down, it ultimately doesnt matter. This is whats happening on the streets of Naples, and soon every city in America. And whether were better or worse for it is anyones guess."

The clampdown was premised on not overwhelming the hospitals. Now they are going broke for lack of patients.
So, while I remain a skeptic of of the “clampdown”, fine, I’ll let the proponents “be right”, as long as I get my way.

One can come up with anecdotal stories about the “reopening” to support whatever point of view you want. I pray this OP’s point of view is correct. Yet what I have seen in Upstate South Carolina is an extremely cautious approach both on the parts of business and consumers.

The wife and I have been to Naples, FL on several vacations. Stayed at the last remaining gulf front hotel that has not been converted into a luxury condo. It’s a small town and we enjoyed ourselves but, we prefer the Anna Marie Island / Longboat Key area.
FWIW, the politics of the peoples in the Naples area is pretty conservative on the whole.

As soon as it was realized that the old are the deadly affected 'few', the rules probably should have changed and let young people continue to work.
With the elderly isolated and excluded from the 'numbers', youngsters are then affected less than the normal annual flu and would go on to acquire herd immunity, eh?
Won't old people be 'picked-off' as they do eventually venture out? The hospitals won't be overwhelmed and the hospitalized would/could get better care the later they wait.
I'm 76.5 YO and I know that about 85% of the people this age who get CV do not survive. I'll stay out of crowds...mostly stay home.

The politicians did all the damage here. A virus does what it does. It is a force of nature. The destruction of the economy was all the politicians and was absolutely avoidable. Absolutely.

Naples is one of the more conservative areas of Florida. Free people enjoy being free.

Naples is beautiful. It was on our list of retirement destinations.
