As others have pointed out above, everyone you're asking advice from on this forum has also had to cancel trips. And these are people who travel as an avocation (at least!) Personally, I have already canceled two trips scheduled for this spring and early summer and have NO plans to travel this year at all.

It is also unfortunately true that we are getting no useful guidance from the federal government. Indeed, the President has announced that the current social distancing 'guidelines' will not be extended past today, even though the virus is still rampant in many areas of the country with both the number of cases and number of deaths still increasing. As you yourself point out, this means that every state has to make its own decisions, often based on little more than hope and politics.

As a travel advice website, we are not here to give you medical advice which is what you need. For that you'll have to go to the CDC website and read their guidelines carefully and make your own decisions. For what it's worth, and this is NOT medical advice, I worked in hospital laboratories for a dozen years, and there is simply NO way I will be traveling this year, or at all until a vaccine AND a treatment regimen are in place.
