The only variable to be statistically significant in terms of cases and deaths was population (p=0.006 and 0.021 respectively). Across the US states, each increase in the population of 100,000 correlated with 1,779 additional Covid-19 cases, even with multiple other factors adjusted for.
There's a bunch of problems in that article, but I just want to make sure I'm understanding his conclusion correctly.....Its all completely random?

The guy that wrote this has a PHD in political science and a law degree. I am going to defer to epidemiologists and MDs on this topic.

That being said, we can't isolate for much longer...

Not saying the dude is correct, but if you defer to MDs and epidemiologists you will be told there is a 2-4% death rate because they don't understand basic math. Let them do what they are supposed to do. Treat people.

It's on you if you don't understand the difference between the CFR percentages and IFR percentages being put out by epidemiologists, MDs, etc.

I don't think you know the difference between epidemiologists and physicians. Epidemiologists study large-scale population data using large scale descriptive and inferential statistics. They don't treat people........

Please don't be the useful idiot here. We all know what deaths they forecasted and what is actually going on in high infection places like NYC. But sure move the goalposts.

Are you sure you know what an epidemiologist is?
