Manitoba implemented physical distancing measures in mid-March. South Dakota has still not made physical distancing mandatory.

South Dakota ( blue line ) has seen a dramatic increase in Covid-19 infections since April 4. Those who are skeptical of the impact of physical distancing in Manitoba should look at this graph! Data are from the Johns Hopkins daily tabulations
