The pandemic's toll in big U.S. cities like New York, Seattle and San Francisco has dominated headlines, but enormous swaths of rural America from coastal Georgia to the frozen reaches of Alaska are also deeply affected by the rapid spread of the new coronavirus. In Alaska's Point Hope, an Inupiat whaling village at the edge of the Arctic Ocean nearly 700 miles north of Anchorage, tribal leaders held a meeting this week to prepare and wrestled with whether or not to ban air travel into town. The state's limited road system doesn't reach the town of 900 people, which relies on planes for much of its connection to the outside world. (AP Photo/Al Grillo, File)
