look closer:
there's a huge cluster of sanctuary cities in oregon, yet almost no cases of covid-19.
there are also lots of sanctuary cities in the corridor from DC over Baltimore to Philly, but only few cases there.
there are also clusters of covid-cases popping up in Houston and southern Florida, although there are no sanctuary cities/counties in that region.
so the tldr is that the covid-19 map largely follows the population map, with a particular clustering around communities with large Chinese diaspora (Seattle/Washington state, San Francisco Bay Area, New York City).
