Because people live on top of each other in cities. Most cases are in NYC

obviously, but NY has as many cases as all the other states combined excluding Washington State and it's pretty close, you could almost squeeze Wash. it in there...

I was in nyc 3 or 4 weeks ago(seems like a lifetime) and I could not believe the amount of foreign people Ofer where I went. I heard French italian and English everywhere. It’s a global germ hub.

Aside from the other obvious reasons mentioned this is largely due to much higher rates of testing, NY is using its own labs along with the CDC tests. I don’t know if any other states are doing or are able to do this.
