You'll see that the CDC uses some kind of formula to project the deaths for recent weeks while it waits for the reporting to trickle in from the states. But we're several weeks removed from the end of 2020 now, so the 2020 numbers should be pretty meaningful/trustworthy.

You can download the data for each state (lower right hand corner of the graph of deaths), so if you wanted, you could set up an Excel to compare different states.
Ouch, Florida isnt looking so good there. AT ALL.

How do you figure? I've only spot checked a few states, haven't done anything comprehensive. Genuinely curious as to what you've found.

go the state by state data, sort by date, and notice the far right columns. Florida has one of the highest numbers of excess deaths it looks like.

Florida has the third highest population. Currently has 3rd highest total tally in deaths, but is 27 out of 50 when adjusted for population.

You will have to crunch the numbers for all 50 states, and then rank them. Have you?

My son lives in Florida and no, I wouldn't say that they are doing the best with regard to the pandemic.

You couldn't pay me to live in that state, Covid or no.
