The Unmasked and the Worthless have infected more people in Florida than were infected in NYC.
According to data from Johns Hopkins University, 423,855 people have tested positive for the coronavirus in Florida as of Sunday, compared to 411,736 in New York.

Lets hope the death toll doesn't catch up as well.
The virus is serious business and you really need to wear a mask, wash your hands, and practice social distancing.
Yet the NY death toll is 10 times higher than Florida
You suck at math. NY had 6X deaths, but Give it time Retard. Florida death rate is currently higher than NY.
New York
Coronavirus Cases: 439,885
Deaths: 32,689
Recovered: 281,625
11.6% Death rate
Florida
Coronavirus Cases: 423,855
Deaths: 5,855
Recovered: 41,866
13.9% Death rate
You don’t measure death rate by comparing it to “confirmed cases”, you measure it per 100,000 people.
As of now NY has 168 deaths per 100k. (2nd highest in country, 1st is NJ).
Florida is at 33 deaths per 100k. (18th)
There are a number of different ways to calculate a death or mortality rate.....adding more variables just makes it more complex. If you simply divide deaths into total cases you get a clean rate for each state and country
Wrong. “Total cases” is skewed by how much they test. If they barely do any testing it will look like a sky high death rate, or if people get tested more than once it totally fucks it up. And people ARE being tested multiple times. People retest themselves after a week or two, and sometimes they still have it.
So as long as a Wu Flu death is correctly identified (which is another issue), the best way is to just compare how many actual deaths there are to the total population.
Fine, do it however you want. The results will, I bet, look basically the same....NJ the worst followed closely by NY, Illinois stinks....notice a theme here with the Dem governors and high mortality rates? And states like Florida and Texas, testing a great deal but taking it in the shorts from the media because they have a lot of positives, have low mortality rates,
That’s what Dems are doing, trying to play with numbers to get it to fit their Agenda: Orange Man and Red States bad.
If you want actual death rates, you have to calculate serology testing, which identifies the percentage of the population that has had the virus at some point. In Arizona that is over 5.3% now. That means we’ll over 200,000 people were never counted as confirmed cases, which AZ reports as 179,00 today. That puts the actual mortality rate of Wu Flu at 0.99%.
Then when you consider the fact that the vast majority of deaths is in senior citizens, if you only look at 55 and under, the mortality rate in AZ is only 0.0097%.
So unless you are a senior citizen, or have some terrible pre-existing conditions, you’ve got nothing to worry about.
