As of the early Saturday (4/18) morning, here are the number of cases per 100,000 population:

215 USA
1,203 New York State
108 Florida
89 Sumter County
56 The Villages (73 cases & 130,000 population)

It’s much more meaningful to look at cases per 100,000 people rather than just raw numbers of cases. Wish the media did this. Thank you!
