White people who settled the Americas already had immunities to many pandemics

But, the Native Americans of the North and South American Continents did not because populations were not high enough in cities to create them here. So, in North America alone about 90 million native Americans died.

As soon as the white trappers came to a new Native American tribe they began to die of these diseases that the trappers were immune to but the native Americans weren't. So, by the time settlers arrived long after the Trappers came 90% of those tribes were already dead. This is the actual way America was settled as relatively peacefully as it was.

That's the other point with pandemics. When populations of people stay low enough and the people are relatively mobile like with tents following the buffalo like the Plains Indians you aren't going to get the big plagues because most plagues start with a buildup of feces in water supplies and other unsanitary factors like this. So, plagues tend to start and do the best around large centers of populations around the world. So, living in the country away from plagues and pandemics makes a lot of sense in surviving one after one hits too.

The main drawback of living so remotely would be that if you do get sick from this pandemic that there wouldn't be the capacity to treat you and keep you alive. However, when this gets bad it will be like this everywhere on earth eventually.

I think the U.S. might peak with it's first wave of coronavirus by June or July 2020. But, what happens when the 2nd wave hits and the 3rd or 4th? This seems to me to be the long term problem here because you can get coronavirus more than once. And if it doesn't kill you the 1st time it might the 2nd, 3rd or 4th time you get it while working or going to school in the future.
