NC reaches 250K cases, more than 4,000 dead; no further reopening for at least 3 weeks
<+>
Today, I masked up and went deeeep into rural NC lumber country to my preferred, farm-to-counter butcher shop. This community is about as remote as it gets along the east coast; 8 houses, a train crossing, & said butcher shop / grocery store --25 miles from the nearest small town and hours to the nearest metro area. It was bustling, lots of coming and going, maybe 50 adults or more.
My wife & I were the only ones wearing masks in the place, customers OR employees. Ironically, there was a poster on the door that said the governor required masks in retail establishments.
The virus is over and done out in the sticks.
