What is this based on? Most urban centers were the first places to shut down and first to require masks. From my family in Iowa, they seem to be taking far less precautions than what I’ve seen in Chicago. Iowa never even had a stay-at-home order.
In places that have opened back up, it isn’t being driven by the urban areas. Georgia and Florida aren’t opened because Atlanta and Miami forced the Governor’s hand. Do you think most of these protesters we’ve seen are from cities or outside?
- austincheney 6y agoBased just upon my unscientific observations and people I talk to. I see most people at my urban grocers without masks and hear from family and neighbors go to the store ever other day. When I drove to my mothers house in rural area recently there were few people in the grocery store there and most were wearing masks. A few days later I drove to Fort Hood for a military deployment and again everybody in this tiny town of Gatesville were wearing masks in the store and really taking distancing seriously in the store.
- take_a_breath 6y agoThat’s the exact opposite of what I’m hearing in Illinois. Stores in the city are strictly enforcing the mask policy (I’ve seen multiple people denied entry), the suburbs are a little less strict and the rural areas even less so. Edit: Wanted to add that the legislatures suing the Governor over his stay-at-home order are from rural parts of the state. https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200429/gop-legislators-question-pritzkers-authority-to-extend-stay-at-home-order https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200429/gop-legislators-qu...
