Celebrities are fleeing urban coronavirus hotspots for Wyoming, Montana and other Western rural regions, a move experts are criticizing as dangerous to those who live in those areas year-round, fearing their relocation may cause added"These moves have been a huge concern for us," Alan Morgan, chief executive officer of the National Rural Health Association , told NBC News.
Morgan said that as of Friday afternoon, there are more than 16,000 cases of coronavirus scattered across rural counties nationally.
"To be honest, we thought the best way to kind of do our part was ... We have a place in Montana and so, we came up here," Timberlake said in an interview with SiriusXM Hits1 on Wednesday.Gallatin County is among the top 10 rural counties with highest reported COVID-19 cases, according to data obtained by NBC News from NRHA, which is independently tracking national numbers.
"In Utah, in Colorado, all around the country, we're hearing the same stories," Morgan said."People are moving in to these understaffed, underfunded areas that are tinder boxes for the outbreak. Many of the populations in these communities are exactly those who are least equipped to get the virus, older, sicker people with preexisting conditions who can't afford to be exposed to it.
