    You won't be able to get anywhere near the hospital in about two weeks time.

    No truck stop is going to let you be sick in your truck in their lot for any amount of time. As soon as they find out you are sick, they will call the health department. You will be picked up.

    No body at a truck stop is going to call the health department.... besides what would the health department do about it?
    Jimminy crickets how do you people find your way to work in the morning?

    You just said if they know you are sick out in your truck.
    That is total different than wondering around Walmart.
    But the same either way I guess? The dewbs that work at the heath department are not leaving there office during this outbreak. You think the cops are going to put themselves in harms way to come check on a driver in his truck because someone at the truckstop though they had caronavirus?
    You know what?


    Awe never mind

    That truck, and you, will be considered and treated like a biohazard, and rightfully so.
