So why is California suffering so many more SARS-CoV-2 casualties per capita?
Why?
Because Texas is full of good, hard working white Christian Americans (aka REAL Americans) as opposed to all of the filthy Leftist Commie scum in California.
Or, at least that is what we are supposed to conclude. Right, OP?

We are talking about how many visitors by oversees travelers.
The infoplease.com link offered by the respondent was, among other things, an attempt to argue that DFW Airport is little more than a way station, a transfer point.
Texas's GDP is certainly bigger than blue state Michigan's and blue state New York's.
So why is blue state California's COVID-19 deaths per capita number so much higher--almost twice higher--than Texas's?

Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with what political flavor they have chosen.
Most of life, for most people, has a hell of a lot less to do with politics than I believe you’d think.

Again I have shown you the number of visitors, you refuse to address the numbers because it goes against your argument. You have failed in this debate.
Texas for the most part, ranks low against California in the number of visitors from other than Canada and Mexico. Being that it borders Mexico, the largest number of visitors to Texas is from Mexico by far.
DFW is a transfer point, as is Atlanta. What is the issue? I just showed you that California has ten times the number of non-Mexican and Canadian international visitors. LAX alone has over 20 million more passengers than DFW each year.

Let's follow the conversation and stay on track. In answering your OP? This is how it went:

Those are the non-domestic carriers that fly into just DFW alone.
Which doesn't count AA's direct flights to Shanghai Pudong Airport, as well as to Beijing Capital International, that were halted.
(Then there are all the other int'l routes flown by the domestics from DFW.)

The question was answered way back in your thread. Jeez! The link was a response to your OP Question and about how many foreign travelers there are to Texas and California. California obviously has WAY MORE. FACTS! And this is a probable explanation to your OP Question.
This is not hard! You trying to obfuscate the simplicity of this is telling!
Furthermore, as I noted earlier both Texas and CA are not high.
