This chart shows how the total number of deaths in each of the 50 hardest hit cities with a population over 100,000 has risen, day-by-day, over the last 28 days. Tiles appear on the date the first death was recorded and are colored by the number of deaths relative to the city’s population.Peter Aldhous / BuzzFeed News / Via New York Times / US Census Bureau
This chart shows the number of reported deaths, relative to the cities’ populations, on each individual day. The cities are sorted according to their death rates on the day with the most recent available data. The chart shows the worsening situation in New Orleans and New York City, and how Albany, Georgia, was hit hard in late March.
If the tiles for any city start to get lighter over time after a period with more intense colors, it suggests that its epidemic is starting to come under control. Death rates reveal proportionately how hard individual cities have been hit by COVID-19, but it’s also important to consider the totals, and how quickly they are rising.
