This just makes it worse. NYC is denser, more interconnected, more unqeual, more public transit oriented, and all these other things that make it high risk. Bei

This just makes it worse. NYC is denser, more interconnected, more unqeual, more public transit oriented, and all these other things that make it high risk. Being a higher outbreak risk, they should have taken more precautions earlier, rather than fewer precautions later. The difference in number of cases in each region isn't the story. It couldn't be, precisely because these places are so different. The story is the differences how each region approached precautions. You'd hope NY, as a higher outbreak risk, would have been more cautious and more willing to listen to experts than Seattle.
