The number of new covid-19 confirmed cases have been
dropping big time here in Massachusetts (finally).

I was tracking confirmed cases in Plymouth County and
during it's peak the number of confirmed cases was
rising by 150 to 350 cases per *day*.

Now, the number of cases in Plymouth County has
dropped to 250 total over the last 12 days.

Unfortunately, there are about 22 states where the
increase in cases is rising again. Some of those
states were thought to have escaped a major outbreak
of cases.
The best we ever hoped for was flattening the curve and we did that
but the virus is still out there. At a certain point we are either
going to get immunity via a vaccine or we will have a very good chance
of getting the virus. There is no clicking our heels together and
making it go away.
All of those solutions some island nations have had success with won't
really work here. We can't put everyone under house arrest or put
foreign visitors in solitary confinement under our laws unless we know
they are infected. Even then, it is still more of a voluntary thing
than a legal edict. We are not that accepting of voluntary
restrictions. That was before we had mob rule in the streets. I know
we will never hear about it but I wonder how many of these new cases
can be traced back to the lynch mobs roaming the streets in the last
few weeks.
I read an article the other day that explained why tear gas actually
spreads the virus. (more coughing and spitting).

Depends where you live Greg. For example, the Governor of Massachusetts
issued an Executive Order requiring anybody coming for
lengthy periods or returning to (snowbirds) MA are *required* by law
to self-quarantine for 14 days. Hard to enforce, I know, but if
turns out they infect others by not complying with the order I guess
they could be charged with something.

It's not "voluntary". It's *required*.

Florida did a similar restriction but only for people coming from
certain states or locations. Other states, including MA, applied
the quarantine to *everyone* including residents returning home.
