Like many I have been watching those maps of states across the country that have “stay at home” orders or some form of shutdown in place. It appears three consecutive states along Interstate 80 have no such program. Iowa, Nebraska and Wyoming are “out of the loop” so to speak. That is 1,163 miles of Interstate 80 with no regulation. No orders preventing anyone from going to anywhere along the highway to shop, commiserate, or interact with others. The danger is that 304 miles from Illinois and 859 miles from Utah sits Omaha, one of the largest food producing and distribution points in the entire world. And that does not include Des Moines or Lincoln, also very large shipping centers. So, if the complete picture of Coronavirus distribution possibilities is not clear, and we do not yet know the survival length of the virus without a receptor, do we not risk very wide distribution via Interstate 80? JMHO, but I think those three states should at least take some precautions regarding access to Interstate 80. Stay off, do not gas up at truck stops, etc. Transportation, although necessary, could be one of our worst enemies in this battle.

Point well taken.. Frankly , I cannot understand how the country is not on a nationwide lockdown, including our airline travel. That should have been done weeks ago, and talked about it in the Investments Forum..
