The Trump administration continues to overrule people who actually know what should be done (scientists):


https://www.sfgate.com/news/medical/arti...114158.php

Thought this site was apolitical, especially commenting on articles with sources such as this:

"The person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity did not have authorization to talk about the matter. The person did not have direct knowledge about why the decision to kill the language was made."

 (I'm guessing that Director's chain of command doesn't run through the White House, because the Surgeon General, whose chain of command does, said quite the opposite this morning: "Life can't stop."). 

I'm thankful my elderly relatives are (mostly) abiding by my admonitions and staying in for the next few weeks.

According to the article you linked, the Surgeon General's comment was based on a specific question: Should Presidential Candidates stop traveling? Context is important: he replied to that question specifically that "life can't stop." Interestingly, the article also sited Sanders saying that he's not stopping travel and is moving forward with his campaign, including holding rallies. Clearly Sanders thinks such travel and gatherings are a-okay, as he went on to say: “We will not endanger the health of anybody in this country,”

I've no idea what the right course of action is, however, there are always considerations on every side of every decision and ramifications of what's implemented.
