Is building Allegiant stadium really essential for example? It seems whatever greedy business has enough lobbying power is open. Others have to stay closed.

You can't find anything else to complain about? You should be glad there are people still working.

Well for one thing, the nature of construction work in many cases lends itself to social distancing. They already have N-95 masks and gloves. What is the reason to not have the project proceed? 2 positive tests out of 2000 workers is an incredibly manageable number and they likely didn't even contract it on the job site.

Wow. Construction is essential services. They might need that facility somewhere in the near or distant future to help or even save people. They also must work with masks, gloves, and other protective equipment. Most construction workers were practicing some form of social distancing before all this happened.

A better question is why is everything shut down?

2 out of 2000 sounds an awful lot like 3321 out of 3,080,000. They both equate to .1% of their respective populations.
