Friday Music Comes to Monday

In further news individuals and families have been fleeing larger urban communities in Illinois, Wisconsin and even New York to their seasonal homes on the peninsula.      Apparently they feel they will be safer sheltering in place here.

Two weeks ago Door County Emergency Management asked visitors and everyone else to stay away.  The County requested lodging entities to consider reducing the risk to our neighbors by not accepting new reservations and canceling those that exist to encourage people to temporarily not travel to the area.        

Officially, traveling to or visiting Door County is not recommended at this time due to COVID-19.  

Emergency management reminds you that visitation can be damaging to small, isolated communities like ours that have limited resources and infrastructure available to cope with a potential outbreak. 

The brutal truth is that the peninsula does not have the medical infrastructure to handle an outbreak.      

By definition 'sheltering in place' means exactly that.  Stay where you are.  No travel.  Stay put.  This is how you slow the spread of a pathogen. 
 

Maybe the peninsula should do what Rhode Island is doing.    

For the love of God and all that is holy don't make a damn personal exodus to Door County thinking it's safer here. Keep to yourself and stay home!
