Yes, I too have a math degree and the mean population density of
California is ~98/sq km and yes, all the people in CA could stand well
more than 1 m apart and no one would need scuba tanks or find themselves
in Nevada [or Oregon or Arizona or Baja California]. I made it up ...
it was intended as a joke. It's a good thing I ended up supporting my
family with math and engineering degrees since I don't hold a degree in
comedy and apparently I suck at it. [:=)

Check your math. World population is about 8 Billion. Give everyone a Covid
distance of two meters, or four square meters per person. That gives us 32
billion square meters to socially distance the world population. California is
about 424 billion square meters. Plenty of room for everybody!
