If you Google COVID-19 there are plenty of sites reporting data. The data I mentioned previously was based on numbers only. As others have already mentioned, statistics show different results if you look at percentages based on population, which gives you a better indication of how states are doing related to COVID-19. 

I understood your comment .  I linked to the state site,  no-one should be more accurate.  I will not go down a rabbit hole on politics as it relates to this subject   The point was, the state site which is the most accurate disputes your comments.

I saw an interesting article on MSN (from the Wall Street Journal) discussing superspreader events and how scientists are interpreting them to figure out how to move forward.  Here's the link:  https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/superspreader-events-offer-a-clue-on-curbing-coronavirus/ar-BB14mzoD?ocid=NL_ENUS_A2_20200524_1_2

 

The TL,DR is that events with more than 50-100 people are big trouble and should be banned for now.  This is very bad news for cruise ships, of course.  Ships are filled with events and places of that capacity or more - safety briefings, shows in both the main lounge and the comedy lounge, the nightclub, Lido deck, the buffet area, and the MDRs for sure; and maybe the casino, the piano lounge and some of the specialty restaurants.

No facts, just negative theories.   They post a pic from  New Orleans during Mardi Gras, misleading much?
