I think that also will reflect in part when the virus hit different places. People who have had the virus for a full cycle are more likely to have spread it to more people - you just have more days to do the spreading. On the other hand, as more and more people get it, assuming they develop immunity to it after getting it, the ability for someone to spread will decline.

I'm fascinated by the whole concept of superspreaders. It looks like some people are just really extraordinary at spreading it. A superspreader or two in a small state can also make a difference.
This whole disease is just weird. Flareups with major repercussions in some places with what seems like just one point of contact, and in others where it should have spread like wildfire, it's manageable or crickets. Physiologic response all over the place, every system.
