Come on Kansans! This is serious!!



https://www.kansas.com/news/coronavirus/article241618806.html

As the coronavirus continues to spread, Kansas isn’t doing a good enough job social distancing to flatten the curve, data show.

Human mobility company Unacast uses anonymous data from cellphones to determine the average distance people are traveling during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the average distance they traveled prior to the outbreak. The data is entered into a color-coded map that is updated daily.

Kansas earned a D ranking. The United States as a whole garnered a C, as of Monday morning.

It appears she is doing the best she can to drag Kansas toward responsible action. However, it is Kansas. It will take a while. I just hope it's quickly enough.
