Abstract: This paper describes the Bayesian SIR modeling of the 3 waves of Covid-19 in two contrasting US states during 2020–2021. A variety of models are evaluated at the county level for goodness-of-fit and an assessment of confounding predictors is also made. It is found that models with three deprivation predictors and neighborhood effects are important. In addition, the work index from Google mobility was also found to provide an increased explanation of the transmission dynamics.
