#1 New Mexico CUTS OFF city ravaged by COVID-19: Roads into Gallup are shut and governor uses riot act to keep its 22,000 residents inside in the remote community with a third of the state's cases

Lujans didn't stay in power so long by being stupid.

Michigan deaths rise by 232 in a day to 4,021 amid protests over lockdown with its fatality rate reaching 9.3% - the highest of all states

Tragedy = when two kinds of stupid clash.

#5 Detroit and surrounding counties account for vast majority of MI infections/ deaths, but Half-Whitmer applies her stupid rules Statewide

For example:
CDC map of Michigan cases/deaths by county

This is one reason citizens are annoyed by Gov. Gretchen "Half" Witmer - the Wu Flu is not evenly distributed. The other reason is the utterly arbitrary nature of her rules, although to be fair, some of the stupider ones have been walked back in the face of ~~armed insurrection~~ protests.

Virus distribution pretty much matches the Red/Blue divide in Michigan, with the Blue cities having high rates, but the Red rural areas comparatively unaffected.

If I was a journalist, I would immediately conclude that voting Democrat makes you susceptible to Chinese diseases.
