This is -why- it has to be a nationwide effort. You can't say "You can't walk on the streets but you may leave the state if you want" to one state, and "you can walk on the streets and play bingo and go to church and hang out on the beach" in another state, and not expect the virus to just keep spreading.

Just like gun laws - if one state says "nope can't buy that type of weapon in this state" and anyone can cross the border and buy that type of weapon in the next state, there is NOTHING stopping everyone in the first state from owning that type of weapon.

Now consider the weapon is the coronavirus, and consider that anyone who possesses it, is incapable of controlling their trigger finger.
We’ll just agree to disagree. This is not a “one size fits all” situation
