Sad day: ARIZONA has crossed the rubicon... its epidemic now exceeds Brazil and Peru to be one of the hardest hit regions in the world. Exceeding all European countries as well.
Today: Record cases, record positivity %, record ER, record hospitalizations, record ICU. #COVID19pic.twitter.com/czTCaSeOJ4

3) Madrid and NYC were higher at their peaks. AZ could likely to pass them at this rate of climb. But Arizona has just passed Lombardy, Italy at its highest peak.pic.twitter.com/FHtlr81KAT

Notice how the "truthers" conveniently leave out Arizona when spinning their narrative. Hmmm

Wait.... it's bad in Arizona, absolutely. But are you saying it's currently worse than NYC, Lombardy, Madrid, UK, Belgium etc. were at their peaks?

Per capita, yes — which is the most accurate and fair way to compare outbreaks in other states/countries due to population and other intangibles.

Any theories to why Arizona was hit harder than other states that reopened? e.g. Georgia

It's really really hot in Arizona. Nobody wants to be outside at this time of the year. Lots of people staying indoors in air conditioning. Indoor transmission is much more common than outdoor.
