Live shows contain so many moving parts that have to be going perfectly (or near perfectly) in tandem that right now it’s less risky to postpone vs. hope 1/4 of your crew or talent isn’t sick, stranded somewhere, or lacking tools.

If you decide to plow ahead and then have to cancel at the last minute, you’ve either lost your investment or have to pay significantly
more to bring everyone back for a second attempt at a later date.
more to bring everyone back for a second attempt at a later date.
People trying to move ahead with live performances right now need endless budgets and sub lists, along with guarantees that airlines, restaurants, drivers, hotels, and various gear suppliers (etc., etc.) can be counted on.
Not to mention: you also have to be able to get through all of the rehearsals leading up to the event with enough personnel available and without outbreaks.
On par with having to cancel at the last minute would be putting on a horrible show due to lack of rehearsal, or even having safety issues (which could happen w/out sufficient crew and/or rehearsal).
