Data Story

 A couple of months ago, some German data collection folks were doing analysis over Covid-19 infection rates, and latched onto this odd statistical thing....that areas with serious unemployment rates have higher infection rates.  

This morning while watching N-24 news.....the same discussion started up, but with a newer set of data.  Same issue....urbanized area....higher unemployment numbers....higher rate of Covid infection.  

You can't really come to a rationalized reason for this trend going 'hand-in-hand'.

Unemployed folks hanging out with each other?  Lesser attention to hygiene or mask situations?  Unknown.
