Really, this comparison is ridiculous. It's just an excuse to bash those big, bad, scary, liberal cities.

Thing is there have been massive spikes before in that of the country on COVID-19 and they last 2 or 3 weeks and the numbers of tumble.

Seems like LA it just goes up, up and up. I don't think there is much they can do about it either to contain at this time. Either a vaccine or herd community before they can turn there situation around.

Fargo had a massive spike that lasted a few weeks but the numbers plummeted as quickly as they rose.

Fargo has a massive nursing home population and sadly many nursing homes had issues with it.

Bismarck, Minot, Williston overall had very cases.

Los Angeles on the other hand has been going on, on and on since March with tremendous amounts of Coronavirus. It seems like it just worse and worse there.

The coronavirus was in California long before it was in Wyoming and North Dakota so your numbers don't mean as much as you think they do.

Lots of "protesters," looters, rioters and thugs were crawling the streets, without masks, in California. Shocker. Not one bit surprised LA's Covid cases have shot up, and I expect more. They deserve it for letting the maskless "protesters," looters, rioters and thugs take over the streets and communities. SMH


You get back in life what you put out.

Density like this is why urban, dense LA has such issues when a pandemic occurs, which happens several times a century usually.

San Francisco has done an incredible job in regards to this outbreak.

San Francisco has 54 COVID-19 or suspected hospitalizations

LA has 2,237 COVID-19 or suspected hospitalizations
San Francisco also has a high percentage of people that do not breed.
