The death rate from COVID-19 in the state of New York is 168 per 100,000 people. New York is one of the states with the highest number of COVID-19 cases.
Interesting chart, unable to find a way to post it here.
New Jersey leads with 178/100,000...the top 5 or 6 are all east coast. 38 states are at fifty or less.
OK, so I did some math. Take New Jersey with 178 deaths per 100,000. That comes out to a percentage of 0.00178%.
