[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 883368"] Obviously. Obviously. All evidence points to it being a key determinant of risk no matter where you live for a very high percentage of the population. If you live in a shack in the desert you can probably do whatever you want. It's damn near axiomatic. I've also lived for several years within the Chicago city limits. I grew up in exurban/rural in Brookfield, WI when Capital Drive was still a two-lane blacktop. I'm well acquainted with urban, suburban, exurban and rural living. Anyway, tell your story to the people of Sawanee County, FL, many whom don't even travel to an urban area. You can do your own data analysis while also zooming right in on your own county right here: [URL]https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/us-map[/URL] Large swaths of rural America, especially in regulation-lite states, have high rates of incidence. It's just a fact. The high level view of the full US map tells you that. Hardly. My interest is in seeing people take proper precautions no matter where they live. Those who refuse are belligerent which I find frustrating. Writing this stuff is venting, the chances of actually changing anybody's mind is quite slim. My frustation does not stem from some "every life is precious" nonsesne. That's obviously never been true anywhere at any time. It's because the more sensibly people act the more it will be contained and the less the social and economic toll will be incurred on the way to a vaccine. My day to day activities really haven't changed. I'm not much concerned about my personal well being. I question what folks in denial really think. Went to dinner last night. Had a terrific steak sandwich. The waitress was wearing a mask; people were seated every other booth. Low risk. I golf with strangers, maskless, a couple of times per week without concern or incident. Distance is respected. Some guys want to shake hands, I decline, no problem. My regular trips to Walmart and Home Depot give me no concern. Everybody is wearing a mask and I keep distance where practical. Every argument that precaustions are an overreaction have had to be walked back. The counterfactual is that if nothing had been regulated and no one had changed any behavior and everybody went to work and school as normal, the deaths would pile into the millions. That would have been a lot worse for the business of America which is business. [/QUOTE]
