Despite his "drive by" style, he is correct. The deep red south and midwest did the worst (rank the states...the bottom 11 are all red). The map is simplistic in that it doesn't account for population density, even if they normalized it to deaths per 100K. Of course less urban states would do better, given how the virus was transmitted (no fomites, just airborne). Big cities means more transmission, all else being equal. But it wasn't equal. Red states eschewed masks. Some actually banned them, or tried to ban them. I note WA did really well (you must be proud of your governor at that time!).
