Figure 1 presents data on cities that recorded high risks of infection in February,
March, and April. From the graphical presentation, Austin had the highest infection rate in
February, followed by Phoenix, Miami, Houston, and New York. On the other hand,
Columbus, Charlotte, Omaha, Virginia Beach, Chicago, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Colorado
, 2
Springs, and Raleigh have 0 infection records. The highest rate of record in February was
below 50.
In March, the cities that recorded the highest rate of infections were New Orleans,
with a case record of 101 cases, followed by 97 cases in Jacksonville, 78 in Phoenix, and 72
in Miami. In contrast, Colorado Springs, Virginia Beach, and Omaha recorded no cases of
infection hence the safest cities in March. The data on the cases records from March shows an
increase in the infection cases, with the highest record being 101.
In April, the highest-recording city had 322 infections, while the smallest was 3.
Jacksonville had a case record of 322, followed by Miami, which had 299 cases, then
Phoenix, which had 289, and Austin, which had a record of 281, making the four cities the
riskiest. The cities with low infection records include Omah, Virginia Beach, Colorado
Springs, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Raleigh, and Minneapolis, whose records were below 10
cases.
Conclusively, the riskiest places were Jacksonville, Phoenix, Austin, New Orleans,
San Diego, Houston, and Miami in all the months, as they continuously recorded many
infection cases. Omah, Virginia Beach, Colorado Springs, Philadelphia, Indianapolis,
Raleigh, and Minneapolis were the safest cities with low records, even in April, the most
infectious month.
From the graph, it is evident that April was the most infectious month. These
recordings can be attributed to certain factors, such as the lack of effective strategies in cities
with the highest cases. Additionally, the high number of cases throughout the riskiest cities
can be attributed to low adherence to the prevention guidelines.

The previous assessment involved an analysis of the data based on two major points: the ages
most affected by the virus and the cities with the highest infection rate. This section will
