2020 Rocky Mountain Rally - July 13 - 16

[Lee]

Anyone find a site showing a Colorado map and the number of recovered Covid 19 cases by county.?
All the sites I find show the number of positives cases and number of deaths in each county but they do not show how many are recovered.
The site provided by Iowa shows the recovered cases in each county.
This would be helpful for deciding which areas to avoid.

We'll both need to Lysol spray ourselves down first, before and after

The New York Times has an interactive map. Shows total and new cases by county. Gunnison hasn't had a new case in a while.

Why is this rally not listed under "Gatherings"?

Looks like I have to be a paid subscriber.

Most sites show the total and new cases each day but they do not subtract from the total as people recover or die.

One thing that does not come out in the state and county Covid data is the fact that the virus is traveling back and forth over the interstate system. So, the virus can really be anywhere that we ride. I plann to avoid rest stops and restaurants to the extent possible thereby hopefully reducing the risk. For my trip, the Salt Lake City urban area is very large...from Logan all the way down to Provo. The fewer the stops the better.

This site shows Active cases by counties for some of the states. Colorado does not provide Active numbers but it helps to see the info for other states.

That's correct, we're all pretty mobile.
We plan to take mostly 2 lane roads and avoid counties with high numbers.
I think Gunnison is the only place we stay that's a popular tourist town.
Not a perfect plan but every little precaution helps.
I also went in and got tested today which is pretty easy to do in Iowa.

[Bobby]

Yes, every small precaution is worth the effort.

I'd rather catch covid from a stranger than catch something from Joe!
