And they know this information, how? Looks like some made-up crap to me.

There's a reason why Jefferson and Madison County aren't filled in on that map of Alabama. That's where Birmingham and Huntsville are located.

As soon as people in MS stay home, New Yorkers will stop dying.

As do I, and guess what? The six cases in my rural WNC county are all from people that don’t live here. Five from New York and one from Florida where they moved from New York.

frick New York.

You think the south is more rural than out west? Not even close.

How does that explain out west though?



The West has a very low rural density. The rural parts of the South have a much higher population density. There's a whole lot of nothing in the rural parts of the West. Drive through any rural sections of the South and you'll consistently see housing. Get on a satellite view and you'll see even more because most are tucked behind trees.

Now do a map showing Chinese Virus clusters so we can argue that driving more than 2 miles keeps The Virus away

How many of those continuing to drive in the South were New Yorkers trying to escape to the South?



I know for a fact that rich New Yorkers brought Wuhan with them to Sun Valley, Idaho running from it and spread it all throughout the county

Interestingly the more red there is the fewer the number of cases. The non-red areas of DFW and Houston have more cases.

Might not be what they wanted.

two miles


I live in Hoover Alabama and this would still be impossible for me to do. I can't get to the closest Walmart and back without driving two miles.

This image answers the question as to why the west doesn't have that many people driving far.

People don't live on most of that land

The west is so rural that people are much more self reliant. They don’t just run to the store, they load up and are basically preppers by a lot of people’s definitions.

The south is very rural, but not rural enough to where it’s all that inconvenient to go to the store

So this idiot thinks this....



Spreads the virus more than this...



Or this...



All because the person in the automobile travels further?

And progressives think they’re the smart ones.
