We sneak in at night and I'm pretty sure that I'm the only one that uses the elliptical. We wipe down everything. When I get there, it's been at least three hours since the last person left. It's as safe (in my opinion) as a gym can be).
I think it's probably because exercise gives me some feeling of control over this whole thing. And I know myself well enough that if I don't exercise and watch what I eat, things could go downhill really fast.

I on the other hand, did not go to a gym since February because my (former) gym, NYSC is a pisshole germ bucket where no one cleaned up after themselves pre virus, and you had to dodge the old dudes sitting on gym equipment still talking about Hillary's emails then heading to the locker room to blow dry their balls.
Instead I made a conscious effort to run outside. Then once the gym closed (but still kept charging people until the attorney general said she was going to file a criminal complaint) I realized that my gym going days were over.
I couldn't buy weights anywhere so started doing bodyweight exercises and kickboxing at home (I was able to buy focus bag). Then for some reason I tried Nike Training Club workouts streamed from my phone to my basement TV. Wow. I was sore in places I have never been sore before.
