The sources of disease surveillance information include contact tracing, medical record review, and laboratory information, and are considered protected health information. When interpreting the results of these analyses, it is important to keep in mind that the disease surveillance system may not capture the full picture of the outbreak, and that previously reported data may change over time as it undergoes data quality review or as additional information is added. These analyses, especially within populations with small samples, may be subject to large amounts of variation from day to day. Despite these limitations, data from disease surveillance is a valuable source of information to understand how to stop the spread of COVID19.

COVID-19 testing sites in the District of Columbia. Individuals are encouraged to get tested through their own health care provider so that when the test results come back the patient is already connected to the health care they need. If an individual needs a COVID-19 test and they do not have a provider, there are a number of options to obtain a test and a provider. If an individual needs a test and their provider is unable to give them a test, that individual should come to one of the District’s walk-up or drive-thru sites.

Number of administrations reported by DC-area providers by date of vaccine administration. The 7-day rolling average represents the average number of administrations including the current day and past 6 days. There may be a lag time between vaccine administration and provider report, especially in the three most recent days of report, highlighted in red above. DC residents may be vaccinated outside of the DC-area and are not included in this report. Non-DC residents may be vaccinated within DC, especially those who fall into prioritized nonresident categories. Administration may be impacted by holidays and weekends, the size of prioritized groups, and vaccine supply. Data are updated weekly on Mondays and show vaccines administered through the Saturday before.Data is updated on a weekly basis.

These data show the number of assisted living facility residents and employees who were reported to DC Health as having any type of symptom or COVID-19 exposure that prompted a healthcare provider to order a test to determine if they had COVID-19; many of these people were tested when DC Health approval was required for ordering a test through the DC Public Health Laboratory. Resident and personnel loss of life that was associated with a positive SARS-CoV-2 test has been documented since mid-March 2020; DC Health relies on assisted living residences to be forthcoming about this information in order for it to be properly documented in public reports. A resident is determined to be "cleared from isolation for COVID-19" if they are still alive and it has been at least 21 days since their initial symptom onset date or first positive specimen collection date for this COVID-19 infection.

Number of residents who completed the vaccine regimen for COVID-19. Coverage is defined as the number of vaccinated individuals as a proportion of the number of residents living in each ward. The proportion of fully vaccinated residents does not translate to population immunity. Residents who are partially vaccinated may have some level of immunity, immunity may change over time, and non-residents are not be included in the population. Vaccine administration data is reported by facilities and may not be complete.

The chart does not include non-residents who may have been vaccinated in DC, or residents who have not completed the vaccine regimen, or who have completed the regimen outside of DC.Data is updated on a weekly basis.

Short-term Curbside Demand and Behavior Patterns in the Era of COVID-19: A Case Study from Washington, D.C.Author: David Carson Lipscomb

United States COVID-19: No. of States incl Washington DC w/ Confirmed Cases data was reported at 51.000 Unit in 16 May 2023. This stayed constant from the previous number of 51.000 Unit for 15 May 2023. United States COVID-19: No. of States incl Washington DC w/ Confirmed Cases data is updated daily, averaging 51.000 Unit from Jan 2020 (Median) to 16 May 2023, with 1228 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 51.000 Unit in 16 May 2023 and a record low of 1.000 Unit in 21 Jan 2020. United States COVID-19: No. of States incl Washington DC w/ Confirmed Cases data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by CEIC Data.

It is increasingly recognized that policies have played a role in both alleviating and exacerbating the health and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet there has been limited work to systematically evaluate the substantial variation in local COVID-19-related policies in the U.S. The objective of the U.S. COVID-19 County Policy (UCCP) Database is to systematically gather, characterize, and assess variation in U.S. county-level COVID-19-related policies. The current data upload represents the first wave of data collection, which includes data on over 20 policies gathered across 171 counties in 7 states during January-March 2021. These include county-level COVID-19-related policies within 3 policy domains that are likely to affect a variety of health outcomes: (1) containment/closure, (2) economic support, and (3) public health. In ongoing work, we are conducting retrospective longitudinal weekly data collection for the period 2020-2021 from a larger swath of 300+ U.S. counties in all 50 states and Washington D.C., and the current database will be updated with new data as it becomes available.
