If you received this??

I have mixed feelings. Yes, stay away from people, but what if you're caught driving a country road in your car?

As long as your still at home while driving on the county road you will be ok.

But since that is not possible you will be violating the quarantine and placing others at risk.

Well, somebody in your family group was identified as being in close proximity to someone diagnosed with covid-19. The health authority has your email address and they’re telling you to quarantine in place.

Minnesota has been on sort of a lockdown for the last 10 days. We can go out for groceries, medicines but little else. It’s a pain but I think it’s helping keep our numbers down. As of right now, we have about 400 laboratory confirmed cases and just 2 deaths in the state.

New York State has many times this number because of your state’s big city and state population. I’d stay put if I was you. It’s the law but it’s also good policy. Your state isn’t messing around with this and you shouldn’t either. Getting sick with this virus could be a cake walk but it could lay you up. N.Y. Hospitals are strapped for equipment and supplies right now. This is very serious for a lot of people and it really could be for you, too. So, stay home. Read some books. Clean your traps. Watch YouTube trapping videos until your eyes bug out. It’s only going to be for a couple weeks. Your a man. You can do this.

The word "possible" is key......everyone in the country is "possible"

Why drive somewhere to stay in your car?

Might as well stay home. If you drive somewhere you usually get out of the car at some point.....This is transmitted via surfaces that people touch as much as it is via close personal contact.

Teacher... good answer and I agree. But what if you got stir crazy at home and went for a drive? The state of NY Iis not all skyscrapers. Where I live I could drive for an hour and not be in a big city.

To be clear, this wasn't sent to me. I'm not court ordered. I do work for the state and have been working from home. And agree with it. I have not been out for over a week now and plan to keep it that way.

Just wanted opinions. If someone goes for a drive, stays in the car the entire time and goes right home, is there a public risk? If pulled over they could face.charges!

Marty, just asking. I've been home for just over a week, just driving in to the country with the windows down sounds kinda nice right now!

I go to the woods and cut firewood every day. I harm nobody.

Maybe you should report all the folks You have come in to contact with. Imagine, just by throwing out someone's name you can get people quarantined and forced to stay here me or get arrested? Wait, where are they going to put you if arrested?

Same Gary. I have land, I can go out and work on my food plot, deer blind etc.... but if you were ordered to stay home and didnt have land to go to, would you risk a "joy ride"?

You shouldn't have to have papers to travel freely if your a citizen of these United States of America. Nor should you not be allowed to assemble. Better to be free and take a chance on getting sick, than it is being well but a slave.
I say just use common sense but I reckon the state of New York might see it differently.

What if your homeless.
Just tell them the wife threw you out.

Bosco. If your homeless, how would you get the notice? I guess they're exempt.

Stay home if you want, if not then file a writ of habeas corpus and make them prove they have reason to detain you against your will. You still have the right to due process when being quarantined.

The wording "you or a family member" seems strange to me. You would think they would notify you by mail and be much more specific if the message was legitimate.
