NYC is 2.6% of the population of the United States and they have 7,076 #coronavirus deaths so far. If the rest of the country were no more successful at avoiding deaths than NYC, what would be the national death toll?

Don't most people get large viral loads because someone in their home brought it back and spread it all over the house or apartment for 2 weeks? Bergamo, Italy, is small city, yet hardest hit by the virus in Europe.

Bergamo, Italy, is the hardest hit city in Europe, and only has 120,000 people and nowhere near the density of NYC.

For one thing, AQ specifically declared their intentions to hit small town America, so that no one could feel safe (whether they thought they could or not is irrelevant)

Nothing to do with time. Need to be in infectious atmosphere for long enough to be infected Population density means multistory buildings and elevators Get into this small elevator where infectious people have been coughing, sneezing, breathing Wait a while breath in droplets

But less density also means more time to adapt. The problem is not the amount of people infected but the speed they get infected.
