The concerns are right but public assembly is critical in a democracy, and cannot be put on hold indefinitely. It's probably the most fundamental right in any civil society and with all these takes I have seen on twitter about COVID and the protests, a lot of people seem to seriously unerestimate the value that free assembly has.

Covid as bad as it is will be an issue of the near future, civil rights gains or losses will have an impact in decades to come.
