through my perspective, that is the state of iowa versus iowa city which is a college town. so for me, it is even more interesting, what it looks like overtime in the college towns or the big cities with the urban suburbs versus what we see in the state as a whole. and maybe the state recommendation, depending on where you are, has these very different, plays a very different role in the communities of graying america or rural america than it does in the big cities for college towns. the other thing i would say that is also fascinating, we've looked at infection rates as well. these places that we call the military posts, they have managed this fairly well. a lot of times they are fairly rural counties but is concentrated into military bases, people living close together. they have managed to handle covid-19 fairly well. host: another paul out of columbia, south carolina. caller: thank you for c-span. i am a retail manager, i have been working since the pandemic struck. last march, we worked nonstop, 50 hours per week, working straight through. i noticed that families will e
