I'm not concerned about taxes. I am concerned that people from a very intensely infected area are bringing the virus to NH. If it makes sense for Gov. Cuoimo to tell people to isolate, why should they be out and about here? Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are telling people to stay away, don't come here to use your seasonal home. Rural and resort areas don't have the capacity to care for high numbers of infections.
