There's a significant political divide in how US states are dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, and red states are faring much worse, according to The Washington Post.
States that backed former President Donald Trump in the most recent presidential election have higher rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths than those that voted for President Joe Biden, The Post said.
Of the 23 states that have a total of new COVID-19 cases per capita that surpasses the national ratio, the media outlet reported that 21 voted for Trump in November. Hawaii and Georgia are the only Biden-voting states to have more cases per capita than the country's average.
A similar statistic applies when it comes to the number of COVID-19 deaths. Of the 18 states that have new death totals higher than the national ratio, the data shows that 14 voted for the former president.
