The 10 States Where Coronavirus Is Deadliest

7. Louisiana

Louisiana’s more than 2,950 deaths give the state a rate of 64 deaths per 100,000 residents, according to the New York Times. It is high enough to have it on the list, but the rates in some parishes are much more troubling. St. John the Baptist, one of the hardest-hit regions in the state, has a death rate in 193 per 100,000.
Bienville Parish and East Feliciana also experienced massive losses, with respectively per-capita death rates of 176 and 159 per 100,000.
