Infection rate is population size insensitive.

Easter also seems to be quite a bit more important to Catholics than most christians (see: Ash Wednesday, fasting, etc.)

Yeah but a lot of people celebrate Easter with egg hunts and candy. Not everyone celebrates it with mass. Was mass cancelled for Easter?

Protestants go to church services for Easter probably as much as Catholics go to mass for Easter.

Yes. Bishops in the US closed parishes in March. The Pope granted a dispensation so that Catholics do not have the obligation to attend Mass during Lent and Holy Week.
