The COVID-19 pandemic has devastated the United States with over one million deaths in 3 years. However, the burden of the virus was not lightly distributed across the country. States like Vermont and Washington had death rates comparable to those of a Scandinavian success. while Mississippi and Arizona fared as poorly as the world’s worst-performing countries, Russia and Peru. Speakers Emma S. Castro and Joseph L. Dieleman of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation talk about the points that have contributed to those incredibly giant differences between states in COVID-19 outcomes and classes learned from regions of the U. S. U. S. that have worked well.
