If licensed beds are zero for county, treat differently #58

Closed Makosak closed 4 years ago

Makosak commented 4 years ago

Need to add an exception to the case per licensed bed count:

IF licensed bed = 0 THEN case per licensed bed count = NA

And ideally we stylize the counties that are NA in some different way for the clustering map; perhaps they are just treated as missing, or color coded in a diff way.

Otherwise it's being calculated as 0 which is very inaccurate, as areas with no licensed beds are actually extremely vulnerable.

Take Louisa County as an example -- a reporter brought this to our attention. (Showing in the new version) Screen Shot 2020-05-04 at 8 30 37 PM
