Public health is more important than the accumulation of private wealth.
Probably get started on the transfer rumour mill
Well, yes, from a mortality rate it potentially is (although if 2% of the entire planet was killed, that's not an insignificant number), but if your workplace was struck down by it, and all the hospitals in the world were over-run by it, before we get a vaccine in place, can you not appreciate that could be a slight problem?
Postpone all domestic football for 4 weeks
Restart leagues when the virus has all but gone
This is the most sensible and fair option.
We also still get football in the summer and only a year to wait between EURO and World Cup
