'Random Act of Journalism' by NBC on Virus Numbers

Looks like The Today Show just may have committed what Rush Limbaugh used to call a “random act of journalism,†as Townhall reports.
They did a piece wondering why some of the states with the strictest restrictions in the country, like Michigan and New York, were now experiencing surges in the Wuhan coronavirus while the places which removed restrictions and dropped mandates, like Texas and Arkansas, had decreasing cases?
Now, while they raised a good question, they didn’t come to a clear conclusion.
They theorized that perhaps it was less testing in the southern states. The problem with that argument is that if that were true then the hospitalizations and deaths would be going up as well and that doesn’t appear to be the case. For example, in Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott has reported deaths and hospitalizations continuing to drop.
