Overall we have done a great job limiting the spread of the virus, and keeping our population (especially the elderly) safe. It was said at the start of the pandemic that we would never know if we overreacted, but we would know if we underreacted. Now we can see what happens in other states when things open up too soon and too fast. Let's keep up the good work, wear masks and maintain social distancing! |

We are now the only state that has seen a decline in the past 2 weeks (and even that seems to be leveling out).
Some other states are ‘mostly the same’. Most are ‘rising’. |

Impressive, considering NH's proximity to the hotspot that is MA, and in light of the number of MA residents who visit the state for work, and the Lakes Region on weekends, etc.
Then again, NH's lower population density and "inherent" social distancing make transmission less likely. I see it here in my own county in PA, where the higher-density boroughs and townships have MUCH higher infection rates, while those that are more rural have much lower rates. It makes sense. Less contact = lower infection. Hopefully the folks in TX, FLA and other high-rate areas will see the light and stop viewing restrictions such as mask wearing and social distancing as infringements on their freedoms, and accept them as temporary necessities/inconveniences needed to thwart the spread so we can all GET BACK TO WORK and stop this.

But there are some on here, who would disagree because they make their living in the liberal State of Ma but live in NH and feel they are being deprived of their civil rights. To those people I say, stay in NH and do you business from there instead. Live Free or Die in NH. Point is, NH is a resort State and they need out of Staters esp from Ma. They support the NH economy.

Let's take a look at the situation at the end of the summer.
If an influx of tourists flock to the lakes region I suspect your infection rate will rise dramatically.

Considering how busy it was over the Fourth of July weekend we should know in 2 or so weeks if out of staters create a "surge" in the number of positives.

Me, I use both a mask and a pair of wrap-around glasses as I understand the eye is a likely point of entry for that nasty virus.

It's going to happen with the influx of people...let's just hope it's manageable and we don't overwhelm the health care system. Remember it's not about zero cases that's never going to happen but making sure we keep the cure as flat as possible and have available heath care for those that need it!
Isolate if feeling unwell and get tested Keep your social distancing If you travel and stay in other states for an extended period of time please lay low for a bit when you return or get tested! Wash your hand and wear the damn mask!! |

NH residents know how to isolate that is why we moved here. Also, believe being outside has a greater benefit then what is being said. Inside recirculated air, no thanks. Good work people.

Florida had a huge influx abandoning New York City, where a certainty of death was measurable.

Good point. Upon reflection I must have been feeling optimistic when I wrote that. I should have said "maybe" or "let's hope...". I agree with your implication that Summer visitors are a real risk
