Coronavirus in rural America (Part LXXVIII): "Assume the virus is everywhere," Dr. Birx warns rural folks

Here's what Dr. Deborah Birx said today on the CNN program “State of the Union” about the country being in a “new phase” of the coronavirus pandemic, as reported in the New York Times:
“What we are seeing today is different from March and April. It is extraordinarily widespread,” Dr. Birx said, adding that rural areas have not been spared. “So everybody who lives in a rural area, you are not immune.” 
She emphasized the significance of asymptomatic transmission. “If you have an outbreak in your rural area or in your city, you need to really consider wearing a mask at home, assuming that you’re positive if you have individuals in your household with co-morbidities,” she said.
Meanwhile, from the Washington Post
Sturgis, S.D., is bracing for more than 250,000 bikers to descend on the city next week for a motorcycle rally that the Associated Press reported could be the largest event so far during the pandemic. More than 60 percent of residents surveyed by the city said the rally should be delayed, but local businesses persuaded the council to move forward, according to the AP.
