What struck me was the total lack of correlation between testing and deaths. They'll scream "More tests"! But this shows that more tests won't produce fewer deaths.
First, the total number of cases per million per state. The top five will be compared to those states in the statistical area of Texas in the rankings.
 |
| New York has over ten times the number of cases per million than Texas |
Not looking good for New York. Lots of cases. The worst state in the nation.
Moving on to the number of deaths per million:
 |
| Oh no Mr Bill! It is even worse for the death numbers. New York is nearly 30 times more deaths per million than Texas. |
Why so many more deaths in New York? Maybe they do more testing in Texas??? Nope. There LESS testing in Texas. Can you bereave it?
 |
| Texas has 1/3 the number per million of tests than New York, but New York has 30 times the number of deaths. |
It ain't the tests.
