For example, New York City has essentially the same case rate as New York State (outside of NYC), while the death rate for NYC is 3 times that for the state. That’s a remarkable outcome, that while the NYC case rate is similar to the rest of the state (actually about 40% higher using decimals that are not shown), while the death rate is 3 times higher. This measures what others have speculated, that CV has hit residents quite hard in the city.
The worst city, relative to the rest of the state, is Los Angeles, where the ratios are 5 and 7 times higher than for the rest of California. Detroit also has poorer ratios than the rest of Michigan. In fact, the death rate in Detroit is second highest to NYC, such that 0.17% of residents have died from CV.
