If you can find a common disregard for health protocols in that diverse a mix of states, you are better than me. About the only thing I see is that most of those states were hit by severe winter storms over the last few weeks, confining people inside their homes, kind of the opposite of RVing.
We never really stopped but limited to trips to nearby campsites.
Previously, we make multi-state camping trips.
This time with Covid and having those low-compliance (actually, defiant) states on health protocols, planning looks very challenging -- almost impossible not to stop on those states from West to East trip. We've already completed the West from Mexico border into Canada (Victoria BC and Vancouver).
Or maybe re-do the West Coast until Covid is actually under control and vaccination reached mass immunity (70 to 80%), seen to be about fall.
Any ideas from better minds around here?
As for the continued posting about the need to wear gloves, sanitize often etc. It may be good grooming advice, but it does not appear to be a factor in the spread of COVID. The CDC, as well as many other experts have repeatedly said COVID is spread by areosol transmission and that surface spread is extremely unlikely and rare. Other than the fact that for some reason "experts" are reticent to admit they were mistaken, there is no medical reason to fear gas pumps and grocery bags. The simple precaution of avoiding large, tightly packed, indoor gatherings will most likely prevent you from contracting the virus, especially after you have gotten a vaccination. So avoid Beatlemania, stay out of the mosh pit, don't slam dance, and pass on crowd surfing at Coachella and you should be fine.
