So far, Red States are doing a Victory Dance that they are immune to Coronavirus and it is only a Blue State problem.
Instead of showing leadership, Trump joins them in pretending.
When it comes, Red States will be hit particularly hard by the virus.
Firstly, they are woefully unprepared. They are doing little to discourage public gatherings.....particularly Churches
Secondly, they have a shaky healthcare infrastructure. In many cases people are 50 miles from the nearest healthcare facility. Those facilities are poorly staffed and when the shit hits the fan, they will have no access to critical safety equipment and ventilators.
While they won’t have the fatalities of urban areas, I fear their death rates will be much higher
