Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I think nominal cases and deaths numbers are important, but it's missing crucial context for comparing one area to another.

Describe the solution you'd like
It seems to be a best practice to publish covid statistics using a "per 10K" using the region's population.

cases / (population / 10,000)

Describe alternatives you've considered
na

Additional context
This normalization technique should be considered everywhere it makes sense.
