While Fulton County (Atlanta) has the most cases (624), the worst hit place in GA is Dougherty County, GA in southern Georgia. The population is around 90k, but they have 480 cases and 27 deaths. It has one of the highest CFR per capita in the world.

It is rural as can be. If people think being rural can save you, think again. Unless you are planning to shelter in place, your small town grocery store is at risk.

In fact, I will even say that rural areas could be more at risk because people think they are safer. Fact is, unless you live on 10+ acres and never venture into town, you are at risk. Try go anywhere and see how hard it is to stay 26’ away from someone else.

No human has natural immunity to the virus. It’s going to go everywhere.

Is that the area where that idiot broke quarantine to attend a funeral, or is that hot spot farther north?
