    heres some interesting numbers.. new york state represents 5.8% of US population. Yet, they account for 26.5% of covid positive cases nationwide and 27.6% of total deaths nationwide. Nursing homes represent roughly 0.5% of US population. Yet, accounts for 20+% of total deaths nationwide and only 23/50 states are even reporting confirmed nursing home covid deaths.
