I refer you to the comments made by those in the county that are in the know that are readily available in the media. Here is the quote from the paper:

Alexander City Mayor Thomas Spraggins suspects the spike is linked to the state veterans’ home in his city of nearly 15,000. Down the road, Dadeville Mayor Wayne Smith, whose town has about 3,200 people and is the county seat, thinks the cases are spreading from Tallapoosa County’s neighbors.

“We’re right next to Lee County and Chambers County, particularly Chambers County, and it seems a lot of it is coming from there, because we’ve got a lot of interaction with those counties,” Smith said Thursday.

So no Wix, it has nothing to do with people from other states but it does appear to come from the east so you got that right.  Nice try.

As for the cases in GA versus Sweden, the difference is 18% higher in Georgia per million.  Not exactly dramatic but once again I will make this point which seems to continue to be lost on you.  Georgia shut down their economy.  Sweden did not.  One would think the caseload would be the other way around, right?  Regardless, the difference is not significant in the number of cases per million.  And I will ask for the umpteenth time, what specific demographic differences account for this?  Just saying it doesn't make it so.
