Ban condomless sex, ban all alcohol, ban individual ownership of cars, ban individual ownership of guns.

If you participate in any of these activities you are intentionally being reckless with the lives of others.

None of those remotely compare. Covid just became the number one cause of death in the US, in terms of deaths per day. Unlike heart disease and cancer, this was entirely preventable. Compared to banning cars, the safety measures are minor inconveniences, and only need to last until vaccines are widely available, which will happen in a few months.
