I just looked at NH dashboard for Covid. My county, Strafford, population 130,000 +, has 64.6 cases over the last 14 days per 100,000 population. Currently 79 active cases. It is now colored red on VT's map. Huge discrepancy. We don't have over 800 active cases per 100,000 population!

VT uses cases per million, not per 100K as is fairly standard everywhere else. Whoever decided to use per million by county is an idiot. It just ends up confusing people and causing unnecessary panic when you look at their maps.

Ok, Me bad. If I did the math correctly we have 607/1,000,000. Still not in the 800 + range.

You also have to look at how VT calculates active cases. I believe they go back 30 days and use weighting factors on the older cases.

Probably why 99% of the US population cannot travel to VT without restrictions. I was using NH official numbers.
