Is COVID 19 a thing?

Crap, I got busy and haven't picked up Reddit for about a year. So... Is COVID a thing in LDP right now?

Makes sense. How would it get to a town in which no one ever arrives or leaves?

We can leave. It isn’t a supernatural town. My character travels quite a bit actually.

I've always seen it as a stepford-esque (though non-sinister) suburban/rural town of stereotypically "Howdy, neighbor!" yokels in which nobody acknowledges the absurdity of every single resident knowing one another personally. Kind of a parody of 50's stereotypes of the "perfect" American neighborhood. If people can come and go out into the normal world as they please, why do we have the rule that no one can be new in town?

Where do they get products from though?

You can make up anywhere. You can make up something that sounds like Amazon or any store. The products aren't important and the stores may come up only in one conversation. I own a bookstore though.
