Hennepin has a moderate rate. Outstate areas (especially near ND) are much higher per capita. https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/coronavirus/stats/index.html#wcrmap1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 With North Dakota hospitals at 100% capacity, Burgum announces COVID-positive nurses can stay at work Quote In an attempt to alleviate some of the staffing concerns, Burgum announced that interim State Health Officer Dirk Wilke has amended an order that will allow health care workers with asymptomatic cases of COVID-19 to continue working in hospitals' COVID-19 units. The Republican governor said hospital administrators asked the state to take the extraordinary step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My conjecture is that ND is an older and probably unhealthier state, and combine that with the aversion to COVID safety measures, and you get a worst in the nation case load.

What is your response to my thought that the Midwest is simply finally having the virus run its course here versus the coastal states when it happened earlier? That explanation is far more likely that ND and SD we’re doing everything right with the pandemic in May/June when the coastal states were spiking. So either ND did everything right early and New York did everything wrong and then they somehow flip flopped that. Or, my first explanation is better. Which do you think it is?
