No.
"Per capita" means for every 1,000 people.
That's all it means.
And it's entire purpose is to eliminate the "relative to what?" issue. Like "%" does.

I'll probably never forget what happened today.
I was insulted. I was berated. I was practically chased by people who refused to wear masks in the middle of a pandemic.
All the while, I was there to tell THEIR story. Here's the finished product. pic.twitter.com/HV2Hrcs7gi

MEDIA

There is hard evidence that the mainstream media has a massive pro-Republican bias of blindly repeating Republican talking points even if they are obviously bullshit, so MSM can maintain access to Republican politicians. Democrats don't play that game cc/ @chucktodd

multiple introductions

Far too many people, including @WhiteHouse , imagine #COVID19 swept across America from Wuhan, to Seattle, all the way to NYC. No. There were multiple introductions of virus, from many places, causing separate outbreaks.

Within days of South Korea lifting lockdown, a 29 year old went out to five different nightclubs to celebrate.

Sadly, he had COVID-19 and became a super-spreader, infecting 30 people and potentially exposing 7200 more.

comment

Biden winning the national vote by 6 but losing "battleground" states by 7 seems impossible. A campaign that got this result would send their pollster back in the field because something is clearly wrong with one or both of these numbers. https://t.co/iN11oqjzDz
