So many are in quarantine and trucks are have a hard time delivering food to all parts of the area. The sick have to resort to finding food for themselves, which puts others in danger also. However, that is their only option. Looking at third-world countries, we learn to appreciate the United States and all the precautions the government and healthcare facilities are taking to prevent spread as well as deaths due to this terrible disease.</div></div>
