MID-HUDSON – Social distancing, staying away from crowds, remaining at home if possible, are all effects of the deadly coronavirus plaguing the world.
A great many stores are closed, restaurants may only sell takeout orders, only essential workers may be on the job, and driving is at a minimum.
That has resulted in significantly lower prices at the gas pumps for those who venture out on the roads.
