Knox County had another
Knox County had another death. Any idea why Knox's rate is climbing while surrounding counties death rate is low yet their infection cases are much higher?
What neighboring counties do
(in reply to Joe328)
What neighboring counties do you mean? Besides Sevier maybe, which counties have higher infection rates than Knox?
I didn't vet the data myself,
I didn't vet the data myself, but WBIR has been reporting which counties have record number of cases and Knox is never included. The 12:00 news reported four new deaths in Knox County. Why does Knox have a Yellow light, while Sevier has a Red light with fewer deaths? The news from the media is a bit skewed.
Per capita?
