... can't certain counties (and cities) opt to remain locked down? I'm in Pittsburgh and I'm pretty certain our Mayor will keep things locked down as long as necessary. Also I'm sure Philly + metro areas will want to do the same.
However I do recognize that there are several rural counties that probably have little danger because the population is spread far enough apart. As long as people know how and when to take precautions, it's probably safe to end the quarantine in those rural counties. There are many states that have a similar situation - large populations living close together are still needing to be extra careful, while the rest of the state has barely noticed.
