• • Imperial county with a population of 177K had 8606 cases and 163 deaths, this compares with El Dorado county with a population of 181K that had 443 cases and 0 deaths. One big difference is the % Hispanic population: 79.6% for Imperial county and 11.8% for El Dorado county.
    The following chart shows the daily confirmed cases per thousand population for a selection of California counties. The predominance of the Imperial (79.6% Hispanic) View filenamecovid19-california-confirmed-time-series.svgheight250and Kern (54% Hispanic) counties is apparent.

  • The following were the leading counties in terms of deaths/population

    County	ID	Confirmed	Deaths	Population	Deaths/population	% Hispanic population
    Riverside	RIV	29983	588	2266899	0.000259	45%
    KIngs	KIN	3398	42	151390	0.000277	50.2%

    Imperial	IMP	8606	163	177026	0.000921	79.6%

    It is seen that these leading counties also had large Hispanic populations. Graphs of the ratios confirmed cases/population and deaths/population against the percent of Hispanic population in each California county are shown below, There are seen to be noticeable correlations (R²). The probability of a confirmed case is seen to be two to three times for counties with twice the percentage of Hispanic populations.
    
    

  • Given the "High Mortality from COVID-19 among Asian Americans in San Francisco and California" reported in https://asianarch.org/press_releases/Asian%20COVID-19%20Mortality%20Final.pdf, one would expect to find a strong correlation of deaths/population vs % Asian-American population for California counties. The labels on the charts below are the abbreviations for some of the counties (from https://sv08data.dot.ca.gov/contractcost/map.html).

  • California Confirmed cases / day and deaths / day:
    
    

    
    
    

    The ratio of deaths/confirmed was about 2.5% mid April but had dropped to about 1.4% as of 7/26/2020. This may be related to the introduction of more effective treatments for the coronavirus over the past five months and the fact that hospitals are better prepared to handle patients (see https://www.sfchronicle.com/health/article/Why-coronavirus-cases-are-rising-but-deaths-are-15384724.php).

  • California (e.g. see https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/CountyMonitoringDataStep1.aspx) uses a 14-day case rate to determine if it has exceeded some limit (100 per 100,000 population) for each county to determine what activities should be shut down for that county.

  • For California counties, the average number of days from the first recorded confirmed case to the first recorded death was 84+-39 days.
