the problem is some states have good social distancing and stay-at-home policies in place, while other states don't. Last I checked, Idaho has done nothing until today when they finally closed schools
Well, its interesting. Urban areas and large cities are obviously hit much harder by this then smaller places. So, its not really surprising that a place like Idaho isnt seeing the effects the same way as California or NY. Not really excusing it, but I also kind of understand it.
If you don't have your own personal transportation you're part of the problem. Anyone who spends much time boxed-in with a bunch of humans for much of their day is why we have and how we spread viruses and plagues. Live like rats, die like rats.
Governors have no power over Federal lands. If they did, the lands would have all been sold off decades ago.
