Abstract: The goal of this research is to check the Average of COVID-19 cases in different states of USA 

(United States of America) and to check the variation of COVID-19 cases in different USA states. To check 

the variation or average of COVID-19 reported cases and deaths in different states of USA, we took data from 

the world o meter and compare the covid-19 cases from March to May in USA states. Descriptive Analysis is 

used to conduct this research. The purpose of the study is to observe the total number of cases in our state. 

Death ratio in the state with the total number of active cases in the state. the purpose is the identification of 

the first case, when it deducted with the first death of the person due to COVID-19. There is total of 9.2 milion 

population in the the state of New Jersey. In which for the month of March, total of 18,696 people were 

effected from COVID-19. So a total of 0.002% ( 18696/9200000) were effected from the COVID-19. The 

total of (267/9200000) = 0.0000290% of the total population death occur. In the March 2020, COVID-19 also 

attacked on the other states of US. e.g. In the state of New York, there were total of 83,712 cases were reported 

and 1941 number of deaths occur in the state of New York. In Illinois, 4th case were confirmed in March 2, 

2020. In the end of March 2020, there were total of 5994 cases were reported. The number of deaths were 99 

in that state. Its means that among the total population of 13.1 million, total of 0.00045% population were 

effected from this disease. While 0.0000076% population died with this pandemic. Similarly the total of 

confirmed cases with the deaths were observed. For the other states, total number of confirmed cases with the 

number of deaths were observed as in California, there were total of 8155 cases were reported in the end of 

March. There were 171 deaths occur. Similarly in the state of Massachusettes, there were 6,620 cases were 

appear in the end of March 2020. The total number of deaths were 89 until the end of March 2020. The 

comparisons with the other states were observed with the state of New jersey and the conclusion is made as 

that in some states, the cases were more than the New Jersey and in some states, the cases were less than the 

New Jersey. Similarly for the number of deaths, same thing happens. Over all in the US, the number of cases 

for the COVID-19 increased exponentially. The ratio for the number of death also increased from this 

pandemic.

Introduction  

The world did not forget the year 2020 just because of a virus known as corona virus disease 2019 or 

abbreviated as COVID-19 [1]. This virus shutdown everything even the entire world almost [2]. This virus

attacks around 4.3 million folks around the globe and still increase cases exponentially [3]. This virus arose 

from Wuhan, China. There are lots of negative effects of this virus. All the business shutdown just because of 

Corona and it seems that 2020 is wasted due to COVID-19 [4]. The economy of the world is badly destroyed 

just because of Corona. This virus shows that we need to focus more on our scientists and provide them all 

the facilities to conduct research on different major topics [5]. This virus aware people about some of the 

major fields like virology, microbiology, and biotechnology and now people said that the biotechnology is the 

future of the world. With lots of negative effects of COVID-19, there are also some positive affects like on 

environment, climate, and some major fields like biotechnology [6]. We can see that ozone layer start filling 

faster than ever in 2020 and can see the heavy decline in different types of pollution like air pollution, noise 

pollution etc. The most affected countries due to COVID-19 includes USA (United States of America), Italy, 

Spain, Germany, and china. In this research we compare the cases of corona from different states of USA [7].  

Objective  

• To check the Average of COVID-19 cases in different states of USA  

• To check the variation of COVID-19 cases in different states of USA  

METHODOLOGY

The confirmed cases for the month of March is observed for the state New Jersey. The total cases are observed 

in Figure 2.  

  
Figure 2: confirmed cases in New Jersey for March 2020  

From Figure 2, it is observed that the total number of effected cases are increased exponentialy in the New 

Jersey for the month of March 2020. From 4th March, there was one case while untill 31st March, there were 

18696 cases were reported from the pendemic of COVID-19.   

b)Similarly, for the number of deaths, the cases were observed in the US from January 2020 to April 2020. 

The Figure 3 is obtained for the purpose of observing number of deaths in US.  

  
Figure 3: Total deaths in US from January 2020 to April 2020  

Figure 3 state the total deaths in US from the start of January untill the end of April. It can be clearly observed 

that the ratio of death is increased in the US from COVID-19. There are now 56245 number of deaths untill

the end of April. Specifically in our state, total number of deaths are observed only in the month of March 

from this pendemic. Figure 4 is obtained for this purpose.   

  
Figure 4: Total deaths in New Jersey for March 2020  

From Figure 4, the total death ratio can be observed. The deaths are rapidly increasing in the month of March 

2020. The discriptive statistics is observed for the all four cases. The mean and standard deviations are 

observed to see the variation in the cases and the deaths. The details are observed inTable 1.  

  mean  S.D  

Cases in US  177466.5  294211.7  

Deaths in US  8111.354  15597.69  

Cases in New Jersey for March  3304.321  5432.102  

Deaths in New Jersey in March  52.86364  75.64975  

c) from the Figure 1-Figure 4, it is observed that how much faster the cases are increased for the 

pendemic and for deaths in US and in our state. From Table 1, the variation can be observed for each situation. 

The variation in the overall US is more than the variation in our state. ots means that the overall variation in 

deaths and cases are more as compared to just our state. On the average, also the mean is greater for US as 

comapred to our state only.   

d) the advantages of presenting the data in charts is that only by seeing just one time, the pattern can be 

observed that whether there is an increase or decrease in that situation. On the other hand, disadvantage is that 

the whole exact figure cannot be observed or we cannot obseve that what happened exactly in the middle of 

that period.   

3) a) For the probability count, the number of cases and the deaths are observed only in the month of March 

2020. The exact digits can be observed in Table 2.

Massachusetts  6620  89  

Texas  3266  41  

Florida  6741  85  

Total  49472  752  

On the basis of Table 2, it is observed that the number if cases in our state is more than other states in 

March.The probability of the number of cases is increasing in our state as compared to the other states. 

Similarly, the number of deaths are increasing in our state as compared to the other states. The frequency of 

March shows that the cases are increasing day by day. Also the number of deaths are increasing on daily basis 

in March.   

4. The descriptive statistics for the New Jersey in the month of March 2020 is found. The number of confimed 

cases with the total number of deaths were observed. The summary statistics for that can be defined in

a) From Table 3-7, the descriptive analysis shows that the highest mean number of cases are observed 

for New Jersy. While the lowest mean number of cases are observed for Texas. The highest mean number of 

death is observed for New Jersy and the lowest mean number of death was observed for Texas.  

b) standard deviation tell us that how much variation is observed on the average. The more standard 

deviation means the more variation on daily number of cases. The less standard deviation mean that the less 

variation in number of cases or the number of deaths. e.g. The highest standard deviation was observed for 

New Jersy for the number of cases observed. The lowest standard deviation was observed for Texas. The 

highest standard deviation was observed for New jersy and the lowest is observed for Texas in case of number 

of deaths.   

Conclusion  

The purpose of the study is to observe the total number of cases in our state. Death ratio in the state with the 

total number of active cases in the state. the purpose is the identification of the first case, when it deducted 

with the first death of the person due to COVID-19. There is total of 9.2 milion population in the the state of 

New Jersey. In which for the month of March, total of 18,696 people were effected from COVID-19. So a 

total of 0.002% ( 18696/9200000) were effected from the COVID-19. The total of (267/9200000) = 

0.0000290% of the total population death occur. In the March 2020, COVID-19 also attacked on the other

states of US. e.g. In the state of New york, there were total of 83,712 cases were reported and 1941 number of 

deaths occur in the state of New york. In Illinois, 4th case were confirmed in March 2, 2020. In the end of 

March 2020, there were total of 5994 cases were reported. The number of deaths were 99 in that state. Its 

means that among the total population of 13.1 million, total of 0.00045% population were effected from this 

disease. While 0.0000076% population died with this pendemic. Similarly the total of confirmed cases with 

the deaths were observed. For the other states, total number of confirmed cases with the number of deaths 

were observed as in California, there were total of 8155 cases were reported in the end of March. There were 

171 deaths occur. Similarly in the state of Massachusettes, there were 6,620 cases were appear in the end of 

March 2020. The total number of deaths were 89 untill the end of March 2020. The comparisons with the 

other states were observed with the state of New jersey and the conclusion is made as that in some states, the 

cases were more than the New Jersey and in some states, the cases were less than the New Jersey. Similarly 

for the number of deaths, same thing happens. Over all in the US, the number of cases for the COVID-19 

increased exponentially. The ratio for the number of death also increased from this pendemic.
