While this is true, and unfair, IMHO it's not really an appropriate thing to try to fix in isolation. Some jobs are more remotable than others. We want to isolate people physically, so remotable jobs get remoted. The fact that those jobs are distributed inequitably is bad, but not something we can fix right now. And once this is over, it's probably not going to seem like something worth fixing at all, I suspect.
And FWIW: a much bigger injustice is how many of these jobs in the service sectors are ephemeral in these situations. Wait staff and shopkeepers don't merely have to go in physically to work, they're at a much higher risk of losing their jobs entirely (or having their hours cut as, say, restaurants scale back).
That latter problem is something we can address with appropriate policy.
