All my touring and backpacking plans for this year are cancelled/on hold until there is a drastic change in the covid situation. Short loop tours don't really interest me. I prefer longish (multi week or multi month) point to point tours and they don't seem prudent at this time for a variety of reasons. I am not sure how much sense even the short tours make, but at least with those you might be able to go fully stocked with food and self contained. Depending on where you are maybe water could be filtered from surface water and camping could be out of sight. I suspect most places you may be faced with hostility from the locals where hospitality and meeting the local folks is usually one of the attractions to touring for many of us.
