Is everyone okay with opening up society so soon?

Germany eased restrictions and the infection rate increased 3 fold.
The US death rate has jumped above 1500 cases a day, again.
House viewings are to resume in England.
I think it is way too early to open. but I am not doing it tough and only have cost of living expenses. No Bills.
So for those who have Family, Mortgages, and other bills to pay I can see the reasoning of opening up society, I hope that there is not a catastrophic infection rate increase as a result.

Not everyone is going to agree with the relevant governments of their countries for personal opinions and views on the covid 19 outbreak,but in general I can understand folks desires to return to some sort of normality,be it they feel like prisoners in their own environment or because cash flow is running low etc etc,but our personal feeling are going to be overlooked by those in power for obvious reasons,so the decisions of the few will effect the many,be it in the form of a relapse of the virus,and if the death toll rise due to the choices of others well then we the public can raise our voices to be heard,but in all honesty I cant ever see the world as we knew it ever returning to a norm,we as humans will always find someone to blame,someone to point the finger at,but when all is said and done we are masters of our own destiny and as such will do what we see fit to survive,there isn't enough honesty coming forward in relation to this virus,especially from the global governments,so until we actually get someone who has the guts to take centre stage and be honest with us we can only act on the advice of others,and because of the lack of truth n honesty I personally feel we may be taking a step into the abyss,and this covid 19 will reappear to bite us all in the arse.But I will continue to do what I have too to stay virus free,and if that means becoming a hermit until such time as an honest logic plan is forthcoming from all governments,i will be master of my own destiny.

@LUVELACE How much time/how many deaths do you suppose people should be 'willing to accept' before there's a mass uprising/revolution against these governments prepared to accept such losses on our behalf ?
