Last night there was a woman on the news talking about long distance journeys with no gas or food etc. Her comments were as ill informed as yours. For days there has been a list on the Health Dept web site: gas stations, food stops, tourist spots, motel, shops visited etc etc. It does get updated with additional detail but most of that information has been there since early on.
