US News
Across the US – the vaccination impact is showing clearly. All states are at very low levels for new covid cases.


Fatalities have still not fully come down in Michigan; West Virginia or Georgia– but should do so very soon based on the current case data

The critiera is population greater than 100,000 and new cases per million greater than 200. Here are the 4 counties.
State | County | New Cases per million | New Fatalities per million | County Pop |
Colorado | Mesa | 363 | 6 | 154,210 |
