I talked to an ICU doctor in a state with large number of hospitalizations & asked him to tell me about the people in the ICU.
“Mostly black. Also Hispanic.”
Old or young?
“Older but some young. All essential workers or their parents.” 3/

I called 4 border states. 2 returned my call. They are getting more worried about rural & border towns & less about cities.
They expect bar closures, masks & people taking better care to flatten out cases (but not lower for a while).
Rural communities worry them more.
Why? 5/— Andy Slavitt @ 🏡 (@ASlavitt) July 24, 2020
The virus is becoming more predictable. At least until it gets inside the human body.
It goes to big cities where it finds cluster until people get their act together. Then it goes to smaller cities. It preys on locations where people are forced together indoors. 7/

Are migrant farm workers in 114 degree Yuma, AZ picking the beautiful melons we eat wearing masks? 1/3 are.
5 in a Ford F-150 up at 6 to earn & send money home.
Then to Imperial County, to Salinas, to Fresno, to Wachata, WA. Picking strawberries, lettuce, grapes & apples. 9/

But during the “Stay Home” orders, 60% of Californians were forced to go to work. Much in agriculture or in related service areas.
Even without agriculture large portions of the workforce never stopped. 11/

As Miami, Houston, Charlotte, Los Angeles, Miami & Phoenix peak, rural parts of those states are at risk. And they will get lost in the numbers as they are smaller & less visible.
This problem will compound as governors rush (again) to open up their economies & remove masks.15/
