The point is things are safer in smaller towns. Most people are armed, no one is going to break in for food or whatever. And the areas I know have much fewer cases. Regarding Boise and Seattle. King county has 2500 cases and about 2 million people. Ada County(Boise) has 500K people and 350 cases. The Seattle area has about double what the Boise area has.
There are reasons some areas have and will have more than others. Identify them and then go where your odds are in your favor. Even the Queen got the heck out of London and off to the country. I know everyone cannot do that. Being prepared pays off. I am not a preper. I grew up on Los Angeles. Over the past several years I discovered small town life and spend part of my year there. Now I have a new reason to be there that never occurred to me.
Less population density. Less contact with others. That is the point. That is why people are flocking to rural areas.
People Have Been Flocking To Rural Areas During COVID-19 Lockdowns
Are you talking about the South African guy called Serpenza or something? He used to be objective, but in recent years every single video is China bashing and whining. Obviously that's a better way to attract western audience.
Here is a report to reveal some truth of him.
Sorry, but this guy with all his tattoos looks highly suspicious from the get-go.
I did a quick search - he is a drug dealer that can't be trusted, as much as he would love to please the Chinese/CCP, while denouncing Serpentza.

Yes everyone has some shady history, as both of them. I don't really care what either of them did in the past, but I paid attention to what they said.
It's perfectly true that now Serpentza uses China bashing videos to make money. Some of his descriptions of China are not only biased but also false. He targets the arrogance and curiosity of some western audience, and delivers what they like to hear about China.
He complains about how Chinese people don't like him, as if it was their fault.

I didn't hear from him the kind of complaints you describe here.

I don't follow his videos, but I remember he said Chinese people wanted to force him out of China. (OK maybe it was his friend laowaiXX)
People are not stupid. They can tell criticism with good intentions from smearing or biased exaggeration.
In fact it's not a big deal. Some Chinese people do that too. But I noticed many foreigners consider him a reliable source of information, so I need to point out his stance.
Makes zero sense. All someone needs to do is sit home, no need to go flee somewhere or something.
In fact, just the opposite.
Queen of England likely had a group of people she already knew she could quarantine with in the country.
But it is unlikely that others would be able to get to some small town hideaway without touching a lot of new surfaces and interacting with a fair amount of new people.
The problem? The plan was for this ship to only take non-covid patients, then that would free up hospital space for more patients coming in. But the hospitals pretty much only have covid patients at this point. Since everyone else is isolating in their homes there are fewer regular patients like car accidents, gun victims, etc. So the ship isn't accepting covid patients but that's really all the hospitals can send them. Thus the beds sit unused.
