If you go down the article you will come across a striking map of when the average distance traveled dropped below two miles. You can see a Confederacy of red with little urban islands of COVID-19 sanity.
A certain type of mentality and historical memory is manifesting itself here.

What is striking here is that many rural areas dropped below two miles way earlier. If you have lived in the country you know that often you just drive further to do ordinary things. The supermarket is in the next town or county over. The post office is a ways away also.
So when I see so many rural areas having dropped below two miles way earlier than the red areas I think that they have really gotten the message. Though it could be some statistical artifact I don't know about. So understand this is just a speculation.
