All the high population density urban areas are going to have an outbreak. Too many people living on top of each other.

In Detroit (city of) the Police Chief has tested positive for covid19 and so have many police officers. Getting a late start with the virus, they are quickly leading the state. The Mayor of Detroit has announced on Monday, there will be 70 people per hour tested in Detroit. Yea!”
