In some states, the daily rate of new coronavirus infections is far higher than in others.
Many of the states where the virus is spreading the fastest are among the states that have been the hardest hit since the beginning of the pandemic. There are eight states where the daily infection rate over the last week is more than double the national figure – and each of them ranks among the 10 states with the highest overall infection rate. Most of these states are densely-populated places in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic.

While many states have lifted strict stay-at-home orders, social distancing laws and guidelines remain in much of the country.• COVID-19 related deaths from May 12 - May 18:• Tests completed as of May 18:
