Half the cases are in NY.

The first cases were in Seattle.

Calif NJ and NY lead the nation in cases.

Densest Chinese populations are NY, NJ, Calif, and WA.

That doesn’t explain all the emerging clusters in the Mid and Southeast regions

My point was that these areas got a head start on infections. NY is leading among the states in infections because it got the biggest head start because of the biggest Chinese population.

Nothing more.

Mobility within the nation is spreading it everywhere else.

Don’t worry, Sik, the rest of the nation will catch up on infection numbers. (Or maybe not, if nationwide attempts to stop the spread now in place are effective.)

Ohio has gone from 3 on 3/9 to 442 as of yesterday. Most are in Cleveland and surrounding areas but approx 44 counties out of 88 have at least 1 positive test. My county for example has zero but 2 counties bordering ours have I think a total of 5. My county is 95% farm so hoping it stays away.

How in ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  sake would you know the political persuasion of Rebecca Glauber and Andrew Schaefer? Please, do tell…

Gotta love this. In the height of a pandemic, you turn to denigrating education… a favorite past time of the right. Let me clue you in to something, those people with ā€œa piece of paper in some useless degreeā€ will be the ones that bring our collective asses out of this crisis…

Massachusetts, particularly Boston and its suburbs, have had a lot of immigrants from mainland China

So far, there have been 777 Coronavirus cases, by comparison with 101 in neighboring New Hampshire, the latter state listing only one death.

Some of the least educated people I know have more knowledge than some of the best educated people I know. You can’t teach common sense.
The leftist are the party of idiot Bloomberg that really believe that it takes no knowledge to grow a crop or raise a calf. I’m sure that next time your car breaks down your going to fix it yourself instead of taking it to that stupid mechanic who is so much less educated.
But you go with calling the working man stupid and see how that works for the dem party. Hope you never need a plumber.
The dem party is becoming the party of snobs and they wonder why all those voters they call deplorable are leaving their tent.
Now tell me I’m just a poor little old ranchers daughter who owns a ranch and a construction company how much smarter all the college educated people are?

But they must all be college educated.
Because you just informed all us less educated people that we are stupid.
Hope those less educated friends don’t find out how you feel about them or you will be short a few friends.

Sorry, but he did not start the denigrating.
It was all started by a dem denigrating less educated rural people as low intelligence. Than you couldn’t help but run here and pile on about all those less educated rural deplorables. Shows what the left think of the working man. No wonder their leaving your tent in droves and the left needs a new minority to prop up their tent.
Hate to tell you but those deplorable people are going to save your butt. Their out there working not hiding at home.
If you don’t believe me than don’t go to the store and buy any food because you smart educated people are surely so smart that you don’t need those stupid less educated people to make sure you have food on the table. Plumbers, construction workers, all those factory workers going to work to make all the equipment the hospitals are short of, all those less educated people working at the hospitals, all those Walmart workers stocking the shelves No your so smart you don’t need them.
Seems like it is a favorite pastime of the left to turn to denigrating the working man. Gotta love this. Shows just what the left thinks of the working man.

Yes but they are testing like no other nation 160,000 people a week. They are the only country doing extreme testing, no other country is close.

Um, you’re barking up the wrong tree there buddy…

First things first. @sikofit was NOT the one to make this about education/intellect. If you go to the post where he initially posted the article, you’ll see quite clearly he posted it in a discussion he was having with the other poster about govt. dependence between rural and metro areas. Education was not a part of the discussion until brought in later when @gooddad409 stated that ā€œrural folks are smarter and harder working than those living in blue cities.ā€ He stated that in post #50… that was the first mention of education/intellect/being smart related to siko’s original post. So yes, he did start the denigrating… that was quickly followed with his ā€œworthless piece of paperā€ comment aimed at those with degrees.

Secondly, siko also mentioned in a post included in your own response that he knows people form all walks and that he lives in a rural area as well.

Third, I’ve never once in my life denigrated the working man. Give me a ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  break. I too live in a rural area and was born and raised in the Heartland of rural America. I am also educated and know undoubtedly that my life is richer for it… accumulation of knowledge, not matter how it’s gained, is not a bad thing.

People from all walks of life will get us out of this. But the research, the cures, the high level logistical planning that will be required for all of this… that will be done by those with advanced degrees… the very same people that @gooddad409 was disparaging.

That’s not fair Janet. Homogenous Hampshire is the whitest place on the planet. Even more than Norway. Give him a chance.
