Sooner or later, almost everyone will be or have been exposed to the virus, one way or the other. It's inevitable, especially after vaccinations are available.
The real question is which ma establishments and classes should open, and that imo depends on location. Imo, it's going to come down to the general situation in the village or city. If people who go to grapple also go to church and regular school, they will come in contact with people who don't grapple.

Oh master, truly you are insightful...

He's planning to eventually add actual standup work (weapons disarm drills, etc.), and at some point resume grappling work.
Continuing with Zoom classes until then.

An upstate New York jiu-jitsu studio owner told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Tuesday he plans to open for business Wednesday in defiance of Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo's coronavirus shutdown order.
Eddie Fyvie, who owns the eponymous jiu-jitsu academy in Malta, about 30 miles north of Albany, told host Tucker Carlson he is not trying to pick a fight with the third-term governor.
"Two months ago they ordered a lockdown and I've done everything in my power to maintain that," he said. "We've had virtual classes and we've done absolutely everything we can, as have business owners around the entire country who own martial arts academies.
"But with that said, I think it is time, especially in my local community where the curve has been beyond flattened, I think it is time that we should be able to reopen with proper safety precautions."
