Bayern

Land density: 70552/Sq. km
Deaths: 3266/million
Munchen alone: 1.2m people so will have a similar profile to Hamburg

2/
Hamburg

Population 1.8m people
Land density: 2439/Sq. km
Deaths: 2515/million
Munchen would thus account for at least 2525 out of Bayern's 3266

1/
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

Population 1.6m people
Land density: 69/Sq. km
Deaths: 434/million
Not exactly densely populated.

So still totally unconnected to testing.


You cannot compare population densities by simply dividing the population by land area. Populations are not spread in a uniform manner. Geography of the land tends to get in the way. Eg Mali looks big, but it has a large chunk of the Sahara desert.
