All these comments seem to be focused on the danger from being in the great outdoor wilderness. Of course there is minimal risk being out on a Sierra trail.
However if, in order to get there you have to drive from some other area (LA, Bay Area, Sacramento,. Vegas, etc.) you will likely need to stop for gas or something to eat or use the restroom. Maybe your car will break down and you need a tow. Now you are potentially spreading your germs into the Eastern Sierra population and THAT is the concern of people in Lone Pine and Bishop and other communities. It is important to look at the big picture here.
Trying to nail down a date, today, of when things will open up again is like someone in February asking what day the switchbacks will be open.
The mountains will always be there, the people may not....
