I thought about the car but I haven't been near it for 2 days and may not be near it for a while yet. There's only been 2 cases in my county out of about 40,000 so my chances are pretty good. Most of the cases are centered in the larger cities. St. Louis is the worst, then Kansas City, Columbia, (where there's a huge medical complex) Springfield and Jefferson City, then 7 or 8 down at the Lake of the Ozarks. If I remember right there are something between 2300 and 2400 in the state, mostly in St. Louis and Kansas City.
The blind guy at the grocery store is well past retirement age and I'd bet he does it just to stay active. It's one of the few places around that still uses paper bags, which seems easy enough for him to deal with. I think he enjoys it. John
