On January 21, 2020, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Washington State Department of Health (DOH) announced the first case of 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States, in Washington state. The link below provides access to DOH daily updates of confirmed Washington State COVID-19 cases and deaths, along with essential information about the virus and guidance on prevention and risk management. The link includes Frequently Asked Questions, as well as resources for specific groups such as parents, caregivers, employers, schools and health care providers.

This dataset tracks services that Washington State public libraries continued to provide to the public during the COVID-19 pandemic, when many library buildings and facilities were closed to prevent viral spread and protect public health. The dataset also tracks reopening that began in summer 2020.

The New York Times is releasing a series of data files with cumulative counts of coronavirus cases in the United States, at the state and county level, over time. We are compiling this time series data from state and local governments and health departments in an attempt to provide a complete record of the ongoing outbreak.

Since the first reported coronavirus case in Washington State on Jan. 21, 2020, The Times has tracked cases of coronavirus in real time as they were identified after testing. Because of the widespread shortage of testing, however, the data is necessarily limited in the picture it presents of the outbreak.

We have used this data to power our maps and reporting tracking the outbreak, and it is now being made available to the public in response to requests from researchers, scientists and government officials who would like access to the data to better understand the outbreak.

The data begins with the first reported coronavirus case in Washington State on Jan. 21, 2020. We will publish regular updates to the data in this repository.

The Washington State Legislature has budgeted $200 million in funds to respond to the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak crisis, through Engrossed House Bill 2965. The link below provides information on COVID-19-related distributions to state agencies and institutions.

After over two years of public reporting, the State Profile Report will no longer be produced and distributed after February 2023. The final release was on February 23, 2023. We want to thank everyone who contributed to the design, production, and review of this report and we hope that it provided insight into the data trends throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Data about COVID-19 will continue to be updated at CDC’s COVID Data Tracker. The State Profile Report (SPR) is generated by the Data Strategy and Execution Workgroup in the Joint Coordination Cell, in collaboration with the White House. It is managed by an interagency team with representatives from multiple agencies and offices (including the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the HHS Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, and the Indian Health Service). The SPR provides easily interpretable information on key indicators for each state, down to the county level. It is a weekly snapshot in time that: Focuses on recent outcomes in the last seven days and changes relative to the month prior Provides additional contextual information at the county level for each state, and includes national level information Supports rapid visual interpretation of results with color thresholds

This dataset tracks the updates made on the dataset "Washington State Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Cases" as a repository for previous versions of the data and metadata.

The federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, signed into law on March 27, 2020, appropriated approximately $2.95 billion to state and local governments in Washington state, to help fund the response to the COVID-19 outbreak. The Washington state Office of Financial Management webpage, linked below, provides further details about distribution of CARES funding.

The COVID-19 Student Survey (CSS) was a multi-agency collaboration designed to examine student needs and health risk behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was intended to be administered online during school hours to students in grades 6 to 12 at all participating schools. Recruitment for the survey was initiated on February 18, 2021 and the survey was administered between March 8-26, 2021. The CSS was funded by the Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA), implemented by a team at the University of Washington (UW), with further partnership around content, design, and dissemination from the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) and the Washington State Department of Health (DOH).

IntroductionDigital exposure notifications are a novel public health intervention used during the COVID-19 pandemic to alert users of possible COVID-19 exposure. We seek to quantify the effectiveness of Washington State’s digital exposure notification system, WA Notify, as measured by the number of COVID-19 cases averted during a 1-year period.MethodsWhile maintaining individuals’ privacy, WA Notify collected data that could be used to evaluate the system’s effectiveness. This article uses these and other data and builds on a previous model to estimate the number of cases averted by WA Notify. Novel estimates of some model parameters are possible because of improvements in the quality and breadth of data reported by WA Notify.ResultsWe estimate that WA Notify averted 64,000 (sensitivity analysis: 35,000–92,000) COVID-19 cases in Washington State during the study period from 1 March 2021 to 28 February 2022. During this period, there were an estimated 1,089,000 exposure notifications generated and 155,000 cases reported to WA Notify. During the last 78 days of the study period, the median estimated number of daily active users was 1,740,000.DiscussionWe believe WA Notify reduced the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Washington State and that similar systems could reduce the impact of future communicable disease outbreaks.

Coronavirus (Covid-19) Data in the United States

[ U.S. Data (Raw CSV) | U.S. State-Level Data (Raw CSV) | U.S. County-Level Data (Raw CSV) ]

The New York Times is releasing a series of data files with cumulative counts of coronavirus cases in the United States, at the state and county level, over time. We are compiling this time series data from state and local governments and health departments in an attempt to provide a complete record of the ongoing outbreak.

Since late January, The Times has tracked cases of coronavirus in real time as they were identified after testing. Because of the widespread shortage of testing, however, the data is necessarily limited in the picture it presents of the outbreak.

We have used this data to power our maps and reporting tracking the outbreak, and it is now being made available to the public in response to requests from researchers, scientists and government officials who would like access to the data to better understand the outbreak.

The data begins with the first reported coronavirus case in Washington State on Jan. 21, 2020. We will publish regular updates to the data in this repository.

United States Data Data on cumulative coronavirus cases and deaths can be found in three files, one for each of these geographic levels: U.S., states and counties.

Each row of data reports cumulative counts based on our best reporting up to the moment we publish an update. We do our best to revise earlier entries in the data when we receive new information. If a county is not listed for a date, then there were zero reported confirmed cases and deaths.

State and county files contain FIPS codes, a standard geographic identifier, to make it easier for an analyst to combine this data with other data sets like a map file or population data.

Methodology and Definitions The data is the product of dozens of journalists working across several time zones to monitor news conferences, analyze data releases and seek clarification from public officials on how they categorize cases.

It is also a response to a fragmented American public health system in which overwhelmed public servants at the state, county and territorial level have sometimes struggled to report information accurately, consistently and speedily. On several occasions, officials have corrected information hours or days after first reporting it. At times, cases have disappeared from a local government database, or officials have moved a patient first identified in one state or county to another, often with no explanation. In those instances, which have become more common as the number of cases has grown, our team has made every effort to update the data to reflect the most current, accurate information while ensuring that every known case is counted.

When the information is available, we count patients where they are being treated, not necessarily where they live.

In most instances, the process of recording cases has been straightforward. But because of the patchwork of reporting methods for this data across more than 50 state and territorial governments and hundreds of local health departments, our journalists sometimes had to make difficult interpretations about how to count and record cases.

For those reasons, our data will in some cases not exactly match with the information reported by states and counties. Those differences include these cases: When the federal government arranged flights to the United States for Americans exposed to the coronavirus in China and Japan, our team recorded those cases in the states where the patients subsequently were treated, even though local health departments generally did not. When a resident of Florida died in Los Angeles, we recorded her death as having occurred in California rather than Florida, though officials in Florida counted her case in their own records. And when officials in some states reported new cases without immediately identifying where the patients were being treated, we attempted to add informati...

WA State DOH COVID-19 confirmed cases by age: 3/1/2020-4/19/2020 (n = 13,934) (3/1/2020-5/3/2020 N = 16,698).

Sales of larger package sizes of cannabis flower grew at larger rates during the outbreak of coronavirus in Washington state in March 2020, suggesting that consumers were stockpiling in anticipation of social distancing requirements. The largest growth (106%) was seen in the 28 gram (1 ounce) package size.

United States Data

Data on cumulative coronavirus cases and deaths can be found in two files for states and counties.

Each row of data reports cumulative counts based on our best reporting up to the moment we publish an update. We do our best to revise earlier entries in the data when we receive new information.

Both files contain FIPS codes, a standard geographic identifier, to make it easier for an analyst to combine this data with other data sets like a map file or population data.

State-Level Data

State-level data can be found in the us-states.csv file.

In some cases, the geographies where cases are reported do not map to standard county boundaries. See the list of geographic exceptions for more detail on these.

Github Repository

This dataset contains COVID-19 data for the United States of America made available by The New York Times on github at https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data

Updated daily between 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm Data are updated daily in the early afternoon and reflect laboratory results reported to the Washington State Department of Health as of midnight the day before. Data for previous dates will be updated as new results are entered, interviews are conducted, and data errors are corrected.

Many people test positive but do not require hospitalization. The counts of positive cases do not necessarily indicate levels of demand at local hospitals.

Reporting of test results to the Washington State Department of Health may be delayed by several days and will be updated when data are available. Only positive or negative test results are reflected in the counts and exclude tests where results are pending, inconclusive or were not performed.

Cannabis sales have surged in ***** U.S. states in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak. On March 16, 2020, sales of recreational marijuana in California increased around *** percent compared to the same day in 2019, while sales in Washington state and Colorado also increased by around 100 percent and ** percent on the same day.

For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

As of March 10, 2023, the state with the highest rate of COVID-19 cases was Rhode Island followed by Alaska. Around 103.9 million cases have been reported across the United States, with the states of California, Texas, and Florida reporting the highest numbers of infections.

From an epidemic to a pandemic The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The term pandemic refers to multiple outbreaks of an infectious illness threatening multiple parts of the world at the same time; when the transmission is this widespread, it can no longer be traced back to the country where it originated. The number of COVID-19 cases worldwide is roughly 683 million, and it has affected almost every country in the world.

The symptoms and those who are most at risk Most people who contract the virus will suffer only mild symptoms, such as a cough, a cold, or a high temperature. However, in more severe cases, the infection can cause breathing difficulties and even pneumonia. Those at higher risk include older persons and people with pre-existing medical conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, and lung disease. Those aged 85 years and older have accounted for around 27 percent of all COVID deaths in the United States, although this age group makes up just two percent of the total population

Live and Historical Data

We are providing two sets of data with cumulative counts of coronavirus cases and deaths: one with our most current numbers for each geography and another with historical data showing the tally for each day for each geography.

The historical data files are at the top level of the directory and contain data up to, but not including the current day. The live data files are in the live/ directory.

A key difference between the historical and live files is that the numbers in the historical files are the final counts at the end of each day, while the live files have figures that may be a partial count released during the day but cannot necessarily be considered the final, end-of-day tally..

The historical and live data are released in three files, one for each of these geographic levels: U.S., states and counties.

Each row of data reports the cumulative number of coronavirus cases and deaths based on our best reporting up to the moment we publish an update. Our counts include both laboratory confirmed and probable cases using criteria that were developed by states and the federal government. Not all geographies are reporting probable cases and yet others are providing confirmed and probable as a single total. Please read here for a full discussion of this issue.

We do our best to revise earlier entries in the data when we receive new information. If a county is not listed for a date, then there were zero reported confirmed cases and deaths.

State and county files contain FIPS codes, a standard geographic identifier, to make it easier for an analyst to combine this data with other data sets like a map file or population data.
