New York - When Will the Mass Migration Start?
Any thoughts? Seems to me that, at some point, folks will start to flee the city and state, and that could seriously expand the COVID-19 infection rate all along the East Coast. I wonder if we will see border closings at the state level.

I read an article early this morning that affluent New Yorkers are moving to their summer homes to get away from the cities. This is going to spread both the virus and their liberal bullshit political views. 0 -
The movie Escape From New York comes to mind. This would be a good use of the national guard to control ingress and egress. Bob 0 -
Locally Folly Beach closed the one road in and out, pretty convenient for them, they are even requiring deliveries to show the address Etc. I also heard somewhere around Nags head did the same thing. When you have one way in and one way out I guess you can pull that off fairly easily. Other Areas will find it much more difficult and you still have the naysayers refusing to isolate. Obviously this thing is contagious enough that it is spreading easily, seems more than droplet and contact IMO? 0 -
Sounds like NC is utilizing their hurricane plans. I remember that from my time stationed on the Outer Banks. Pretty effective on blocking land routes. Only problem is that almost everyone out there has a boat (islands and mainland), so there is a LOT of "unauthorized" moving around under the radar.mogley98 said:Locally Folly Beach closed the one road in and out, pretty convenient for them, they are even requiring deliveries to show the address Etc.

There is a balance between prudent action and becoming a hermit. We can respect the potential of this virus without going off the deep end and shutting down the country or stopping all leisure activities. Taking the simple precautions that are being recommend will deal with this without significantly limiting individual freedoms. The nanny state mentality has gotten so bad that our local Sheriff has had to request that people stop using the 911 system to report Social Distancing violations. Apparently there are a lot of mother hens out there with nothing better to do that worry about what other people are doing.GreatGuns said:I believe the National Guard will be mobilized to several states and in place by the end of this week. There are too many disregarding the warnings and instructions to not gather in groups, or simply going along with their normal routines as if there was no threat. Those geniuses are the ones that are spreading the virus. If anyone has to die, they should go first. IMNSHO.

As for me, I am being careful:
We had 20 out in our Sunday golf group yesterday. I practiced social distancing by missing most of the fairways.6 -
Yep Yankees are already headed south. 0 -
Yes, I saw an article that Martha's Vinyard airport was full of jets. Year round Islanders were complaining about short supplies because everything has to come by boat.WearyTraveler said:I read an article early this morning that affluent New Yorkers are moving to their summer homes to get away from the cities.

Well I am pretty certain that when they drop the bridge spans with judicious application of enough JDAMS - maybe some durendal paveways onto the subway tunnel runs the great diaspora and mass exodus ll

It has started here in Florida, our Governor said today that direct flights from NY city to Florida have gone from 22 flights a day to 192 flights just today. Governor DeSantis issued an executive order effective today that makes it mandatory for anyone coming to Florida from NYC to do a 14 day quarantine.God bless him for enacting strong measures to protect Florida residents, if our Governor was a democrap we would all be doomed.0 -
This Sheeit, is going to get CRAZY, before it is all, said and done.
IMHO.

The summer is starting early here at the lake. Out of state plates, full roof & bicycle racks at the supermarket. They're in a hurry & drive too fast in the parking lot. A neighbor's son came out from DC as he can work from his laptop. No visiting them for 2 weeks. I'm glad the local camp ground hasn't turned on the water system or that would be full. 0 -

Tell that to those who have died.3 -
My propery neighbor owns the land across the street he uses it for hunting. He lives in Western Maryland, a concrete guy by trade, building huge mansions for the NY and DC uber rich. He told me many of the "cottages", mega houses to you and me, are now occupied by the owners that have left NYC and the DC area. The rats are indeed fleeing the sinking ship. 0 -
Same here at the Jersey Shore.
Not good.0 -

Maybe they will discover fire ants, timber rattlers and copper heads and go back.0 -
was out for my daily walk today, saw a car down the street from texas, and two other just few houses down with jersey plates, I hope they didn't bring it with them.......... 0 -
It is past overblown, way past. It is insane the way things are. People die everyday from something. The last three e late 80s and one 92 y/o with many conditions. YEP Corona did it. Geez us, more people will die from the coming economic crisis, loss of jobs, marriages failed, suicides, drug OD's ect. ect. YMMV,He Dog said:Catmandon1 said:Id still bet this is vastly overblown and there is in fact little truth at all to the alleged outbreak in that city already caught cbs lying about my former workplace this week.
