Grinding to a halt may be an exaggeration;
There's little reason for
- food production to grind to a halt (California, Midwest, Florida) as these are not high density jobs with a high risk of contagion.
- Technology oriented jobs; These have been increasingly work remote or from small offices; In many ways technology production should be stimulated in solving many problems presented by our now quarantined economies.
- Existing Construction jobs; Maybe they're slowed down to decrease worker density. these have a potential for low density, especially Crane operators, concrete trucks, etc. If you touch your face or take off your helmet you're going to have a bad time in these roles already.
- Power Company. Whether it's hydroelectric, coal, or nuclear; few of these use worker density to run or be maintained. Major projects will likely be stalled for those 6 months. These are also places where touching your face is already avoided.
