chunk is made up of just a few states.

I ran some of the numbers and it is puzzling. These 3 states have roughly the same population but the results are so different.

State Cases Deaths Tests %tested %tested/infected %infected/died

Arizona 4,507 169 47,398 0.68% 9.51% 3.75%
Mass 32,181 1,245 140,773 2.06% 22.86% 3.87%
Tenne 6,262 141 85,049 1.28% 7.36% 2.25%
