The median death rate for blue states is 4.3.
These two states alone account for 54% of all the coronavirus deaths in the U.S. The differences are stark.
This outbreak is like no other, and it could turbocharge the ongoing exodus of people from high-tax, heavily regulated blue states toward those that limit government spending and are more pro-business.
In 2018 alone, New York lost 180,000 people to other states.
What's more, in any phased re-opening, red states are likely to open earlier, since their disease rates have been lower, giving them yet another advantage over blue states.
The problem with such migrations is that liberals who abandon liberal states because they can't afford the taxes or because business is scarce keep voting liberal in their new locations.
It would be especially ironic if a disease that afflicted mostly liberal areas of the country were to result in more counties and more states turning blue.
