Why was this downvoted? It is true that there is difference between "it is illegal to go outside" and "a lot changed, but you still can go for walk or sport".
None of those things are "encouraged." There are non-stop radio spots telling people to stay home. You've got cheeky stuff like Randy Newman singing lyrics like "get away from me" to the frankly dystopian line from George Takei saying, "Stay in splendid isolation."
The are otherwise normal people that are still terrified. Anecdotally, I know people who have had the thing and still won't participate in society because they are convinced that they could die. We've really done a good job of disturbing people, and we're going to see weird fallout from it.
A lot of those terrified people did indeed die; exactly 1 every 4000 people (in the US), plus a lot more will die in the following months, not to mention the ones that "recover" but thanks to permanent damage to their lungs and other organs will die in the next few years due complications from it, so please let's not talk like those fears are unfounded.
I'm not aware of numbers on permanent lung damage. Too much of the news seems to be fear-mongering anecdotes when we could really use all the objective facts we can get.
Permanent damage will only be calculated months or years from now, because x-rays and every other machine to investigate that has a slightly more important job right now, so any decision will probably have to be taken before we get the "objective facts" you want.
You can call it fear mongering or whatever you want but the statistics show 1.3% death rate of infected in the us[0], meaning approx. 1 every 100 people with the virus is dying, and the white house estimates a max of 240.000 deaths before this ends[1], you could still say 1 every 2000 is not a lot, and then you may realize how important any number of deaths is its completely subjective based on your own perceived value of human lives, maybe even 3999 deaths every 4000 is not much for some people because logically speaking the surviving people can repopulate the planet, and maybe in such case we should be really worried about not injecting any fear mongering into that 1 person that will survive.
"It’s okay to go outside to go for a walk, to exercise, and participate in healthy activities as long as you maintain a safe physical distance of six feet and gather only with members of your household. Below is a list of some outdoor recreational activities: Athletics, Badminton (singles), ..."
