Yeh, it's like a ghost town out here outside of Erie. There weren't even any boats on the lake fishing and it was a beautiful day on the lake, Hardly a ripple. It's pretty rare that Lake Erie looks like a pond.

Difference is, those drug overdoses did something intentional and most likely illegal that led to their demise. I doubt the same could be said for most, if not all of the Corona deaths.
