Actually, the state with the highest increases in the last 2 weeks were almost all Blue. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/map-track-summer-2020-coronavirus-hotspots-united-states-n1231332
Logically blue states would succumb to higher rates of covid while surrounded by ( one example is Ky) Republican Governor’s red states that let covid race uncontrollably thru their state’s. Same principle as a wild fire out of control all around you , yet you are saving your house temporarily with your garden hose - til your water runs out. Or a flood your holding back with sandbags to protect your home - til the water rises so high your sandbag can’t take the pressure.
Is there any wonder that COVID is skyrocketing in our most population dense states in the complete absence of federal guidance and funding. When the going got tough, Trump surrendered to the virus and pretended that it did not exist. That shouldn’t just be unconscionable, it should be criminal!
Good point, but I would call it an IQ test. It’s amazing how many people flunk it around here! There seems to be a strong correlation between people who flunked this IQ test and those who voted for Donald Trump. In fact, if you do a lay-over map of the USA of the red states that Trump carried, it is synonymous with the nation’s COVID-19 hot spots, our red states are burning up with the virus!

Points to Rembacki for brevity (and accuracy).
Demerits to Webster for inadvertently proving Rembacki's declaration.

"Actually, the state with the highest increases in the last 2 weeks"
ACTUALLY... since your link to an article dated JUNE 17, 2020, those of us in the HERE AND NOW will disregard any further 'statistics' you provide.
Wait.... don't tell me..... you voted for Trump, right? Some things, like MATH, TIME, SCIENCE, are just HARD, aren't they?
