The usual disclaimer applies.
Texas, North Dakota, and South Dakota have each had a recent spike in cases. That's to be expected. I would be surprised if otherwise.
- North Dakota: back to playing high school football
- South Dakota: never shut down; recent Sturgis rally
- Texas: re-opening, as planned
Following the Sturgis rally, August 7 - August 16, 2020:
- estimated attendance: 250,000
- one death has been associated with the rally
- a 60-year-old Minnesota man, "underlying medical conditions"
- 1 / 250,000 = 4 / 1 million
- NY state: 1,702 deaths / 1 million

Wrong link. Sorry. Here's the correct link.
Be sure to set the search criteria to "yesterday."
Then, deaths / one million population.
In a league of their own:
- New Jersey: 1,812
- New York: 1,700
- Massachusetts: 1,324
- Connecticut: 1,253
- Louisiana: 1,096
Not far behind:
- Rhode Island: 996
- Mississippi: 868
- DC: 866
- Arizona: 717
- Michigan: 681
That rounds out the top 10. Others, ranking and deaths / one million population:
- US: with 584 deaths / million -- sits between Pennsylvania (614) and Georgia (569)
- Texas at #19: 475
- New Mexico at #22 with 383; for all the press it gets, NM actually doing quite well;
- Minnesota at #27 with 338; with perhaps the most strict lock down rules in the US;
- North Dakota at #39 with 205
- South Dakota at #41 with 196, despite Sturgis and all that traffic between Rapid City and Sioux Falls;
- Oregon at #45 with an incredible low figure of 114 deaths per million population;
Where it all started:
- Grand Princess Ship with three deaths total
- Diamond Princess Ship with no deaths
Of note:
- Navajo Nation: 522 total deaths to date; denominator not provided;
For all the attention they get, cruise ships look pretty safe, and then one has to factor in the average age of those on ship.
One of several reasons I don't follow cases: link here.
Unless she is in a "family burial plot," she is self-quarantining.
