Now one of our county commissioners and her husband both have it.  They think they got it at a gas station in the Texas panhandle, where nobody was wearing masks, on a trip to Colorado last week.

When in doubt, blame Texas!

I doubt they got it from a gas station in Texas.   If you travel by car, you just have to carry sanitizer and a mask and you'll be fine.   And if you can always go through a drive through for food and drink if you don't want to walk into a station.

A random station accusation sounds like someone who doesn't want to own their actions.

Indeed it seems... unlikely.

yup, if they'd been wearing masks and didn't touch anything.............

did a group of non mask wearing thugs corner them and spit on them?

IOUX CITY, Iowa — American Airlines continues to offer three daily flights from Sioux City to Chicago and one daily flight to Dallas/Fort Worth as normal.

Chicago added Iowa to their list of 17 states where travelers must quarantine for two weeks upon arrival, however, it does not impact people traveling through Chicago.

States are being added to the list based on increasing numbers of confirmed cases of the coronavirus.

Sioux Gateway Airport Board President David Bernstein stated, ”All flights are still going through Chicago, so there are no restrictions. Sioux City is a great place to fly from because of the clean and open spaces within the terminal that allow for social distancing, along with short TSA lines.”

Makes sense.  In Texas, since March, there have been 2-week quarantine rules in place for states with high numbers of COVID cases.  Back then, that included New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Louisiana, etc.

Those rules were certainly in place, but nearly impossible to enforce.  But still not a bad idea as a deterrent, anyway.

Were I to drive somewhere, I'd take normal precautions and figure I'd be fine.  I think I'd do take out only and avoid crowded bathrooms etc.

Might be worth checking a "heat map" of areas with higher case counts en route.

On a homebrew forum, one of the guys had to fly to Australia, be put up in a hotel for 2 weeks in quarantine, then spend a week on site for work.

Apparently someone there is willing to pay for it to get two older airplanes inspected and quoted for what it will take to return them to airworthiness. 

Most business activities won't require something like this, but where there's enough financial interest to do it and it can't be done remotely, you do what you have to do, right?
