Heaviest concentration on Covid-19 pandemic cases in the world?

Either Bergamo as a town or the NYC metro area (NY state included) has the highest concentration of Covid-19 infections, Bergamo in Feb-Apr 2020 was hard-hit and their hospitals were overwhelmed by so many stricken with Covid-19 in late half of March, now the curve has flattened. Ironically, the "City of a thousand" (Citta dei Mille) had 1,100 cases out of 111,000 people (that's 1%, similar to Madrid, Spain and Tehran, Iran, not sure about Wuhan, Hubei, China where the pandemic originated and since has vanished in their 3 month crisis with lockdown). Bergamo as a province had 10,000 cases and Lombardy was Italy's most infected region with 62,000 (when the pandemic peaked in early April), but 26% of Italians (15 million out of 62 million people) esp concentrated in the northern half were probably exposed to become immune to SARS-CoV-2 before the regional and national lockdown since March 8-10 broke the chain of viral transmission locally and across the Italian peninsula. 2605:E000:100D:C571:8921:AB9A:1584:4730 (talk) 21:59, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
