This public use dataset has 11 data elements reflecting United States COVID-19 community levels for all available counties. This dataset contains the same values used to display information available on the COVID Data Tracker at: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#county-view?list_select_state=all_states&list_select_county=all_counties&data-type=CommunityLevels The data are updated weekly.

CDC looks at the combination of three metrics — new COVID-19 admissions per 100,000 population in the past 7 days, the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied by COVID-19 patients, and total new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population in the past 7 days — to determine the COVID-19 community level. The COVID-19 community level is determined by the higher of the new admissions and inpatient beds metrics, based on the current level of new cases per 100,000 population in the past 7 days. New COVID-19 admissions and the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied represent the current potential for strain on the health system. Data on new cases acts as an early warning indicator of potential increases in health system strain in the event of a COVID-19 surge. Using these data, the COVID-19 community level is classified as low, medium, or high. COVID-19 Community Levels can help communities and individuals make decisions based on their local context and their unique needs. Community vaccination coverage and other local information, like early alerts from surveillance, such as through wastewater or the number of emergency department visits for COVID-19, when available, can also inform decision making for health officials and individuals.

See https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/science/community-levels.html for more information.

For the most accurate and up-to-date data for any county or state, visit the relevant health department website. COVID Data Tracker may display data that differ from state and local websites. This can be due to differences in how data were collected, how metrics were calculated, or the timing of web updates.

Note: This dataset was renamed from "United States COVID-19 Community Levels by County as Originally Posted" to "United States COVID-19 Community Levels by County" on March 31, 2022. March 31, 2022: Column name for county population was changed to “county_population”. No change was made to the data points previous released. March 31, 2022: New column, “health_service_area_population”, was added to the dataset to denote the total population in the designated Health Service Area based on 2019 Census estimate. March 31, 2022: FIPS codes for territories American Samoa, Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and United States Virgin Islands were re-formatted to 5-digit numeric for records released on 3/3/2022 to be consistent with other records in the dataset. March 31, 2022: Changes were made to the text fields in variables “county”, “state”, and “health_service_area” so the formats are consistent across releases. March 31, 2022: The “%” sign was removed from the text field in column “covid_inpatient_bed_utilization”. No change was made to the data. As indicated in the column description, values in this column represent the percentage of staffed inpatient beds occupied by COVID-19 patients (7-day average). March 31, 2022: Data values for columns, “county_population”, “health_service_area_number”, and “health_service_area” were backfilled for records released on 2/24/2022. These columns were added since the week of 3/3/2022, thus the values were previously missing for records released the week prior. April 7, 2022: Updates made to data released on 3/24/2022 for Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and United States Virgin Islands to correct a data mapping error.

State, territorial, and county executive orders, administrative orders, resolutions, and proclamations are collected from government websites and cataloged and coded using Microsoft Excel by one coder with one or more additional coders conducting quality assurance. Data were collected to determine when individuals in states, territories, and counties were subject to executive orders, administrative orders, resolutions, and proclamations for COVID-19 that require or recommend people stay in their homes. These data are derived from the publicly available state, territorial, and county executive orders, administrative orders, resolutions, and proclamations (“orders”) for COVID-19 that expressly require or recommend individuals stay at home found by the CDC, COVID-19 Community Intervention and At-Risk Task Force, Monitoring and Evaluation Team & CDC, Center for State, Tribal, Local, and Territorial Support, Public Health Law Program from March 15 through May 5, 2020. These data will be updated as new orders are collected. Any orders not available through publicly accessible websites are not included in these data. Only official copies of the documents or, where official copies were unavailable, official press releases from government websites describing requirements were coded; news media reports on restrictions were excluded. Recommendations not included in an order are not included in these data. These data do not include mandatory business closures, curfews, or limitations on public or private gatherings. These data do not necessarily represent an official position of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

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.

Context

This dataset was collected for the study "**Lagged meteorological impacts on COVID-19 incidence among high-risk counties in the United States – A spatiotemporal analysis**", which was published in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology on July 1, 2021. Now the paper is available online: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41370-021-00356-y

Content

The data set contain 16 daily meteorological variables and COVID-19 cases (confirmed and death) in high-prevalent counties in the United States from March to October in 2020. The data sources were the New York Times COVID Github, Weather Underground, and American Community Survey. Notice that not all variables were applied in the study, but we still share everything we got from the three data sources. Notice that there are 204 high-prevalent counties identified, but only 203 counties were used in the publication because of a high proportion of missing data in 1 county (Lake County, TN).

Inspiration

We hope some people can be inspired to expand the database for all counties in the United States.

The COVID-19 Vulnerability and Recovery Index uses Tract and ZIP Code-level data* to identify California communities most in need of immediate and long-term pandemic and economic relief. Specifically, the Index is comprised of three components — Risk, Severity, and Recovery Need with the last scoring the ability to recover from the health, economic, and social costs of the pandemic. Communities with higher Index scores face a higher risk of COVID-19 infection and death and a longer uphill economic recovery. Conversely, those with lower scores are less vulnerable.

The Index includes one overarching Index score as well as a score for each of the individual components. Each component includes a set of indicators we found to be associated with COVID-19 risk, severity, or recovery in our review of existing indices and independent analysis. The Risk component includes indicators related to the risk of COVID-19 infection. The Severity component includes indicators designed to measure the risk of severe illness or death from COVID-19. The Recovery Need component includes indicators that measure community needs related to economic and social recovery. The overarching Index score is designed to show level of need from Highest to Lowest with ZIP Codes in the Highest or High need categories, or top 20th or 40th percentiles of the Index, having the greatest need for support.

The Index was originally developed as a statewide tool but has been adapted to LA County for the purposes of the Board motion. To distinguish between the LA County Index and the original Statewide Index, we refer to the revised Index for LA County as the LA County ARPA Index.

*Zip Code data has been crosswalked to Census Tract using HUD methodology

Indicators within each component of the LA County ARPA Index are:Risk: Individuals without U.S. citizenship; Population Below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL); Overcrowded Housing Units; Essential Workers Severity: Asthma Hospitalizations (per 10,000); Population Below 200% FPL; Seniors 75 and over in Poverty; Uninsured Population; Heart Disease Hospitalizations (per 10,000); Diabetes Hospitalizations (per 10,000)Recovery Need: Single-Parent Households; Gun Injuries (per 10,000); Population Below 200% FPL; Essential Workers; Unemployment; Uninsured PopulationData are sourced from US Census American Communities Survey (ACS) and the OSHPD Patient Discharge Database.

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed a significant global health threat since January 2020. Policies to reduce human mobility have been recognized to effectively control the spread of COVID-19; although the relationship between mobility, policy implementation, and virus spread remains contentious, with no clear pattern for how countries classify each other, and determine the destinations to- and from which to restrict travel. In this rapid review, we identified country classification schemes for high-risk COVID-19 areas and associated policies which mirrored the dynamic situation in 2020, with the aim of identifying any patterns that could indicate the effectiveness of such policies. We searched academic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, medRxiv, Google Scholar, and EMBASE. We also consulted web pages of the relevant government institutions in all countries. This rapid review's searches were conducted between October 2020 and December 2021. Web scraping of policy documents yielded additional 43 country reports on high-risk area classification schemes. In 43 countries from which relevant reports were identified, six issued domestic classification schemes. International classification schemes were issued by the remaining 38 countries, and these mainly used case incidence per 100,000 inhabitants as key indicator. The case incidence cut-off also varied across the countries, ranging from 20 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the past 7 days to more than 100 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the past 28 days. The criteria used for defining high-risk areas varied across countries, including case count, positivity rate, composite risk scores, community transmission and satisfactory laboratory testing. Countries either used case incidence in the past 7, 14 or 28 days. The resulting policies included restrictions on internal movement and international travel. The quarantine policies can be summarized into three categories: (1) 14 days self-isolation, (2) 10 days self-isolation and (3) 14 days compulsory isolation.

Context

The below information was taken from ancillary documents associated with the original layer from FDOH.Persons Under Investigation/Surveillance (PUI):Essentially, PUIs are any person who has been or is waiting to be tested. This includes: persons who are considered high-risk for COVID-19 due to recent travel, contact with a known case, exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 as determined by a healthcare professional, or some combination thereof. PUI’s also include people who meet laboratory testing criteria based on symptoms and exposure, as well as confirmed cases with positive test results. PUIs include any person who is or was being tested, including those with negative and pending results. All PUIs fit into one of three residency types: 1. Florida residents tested in Florida2. Non-Florida residents tested in Florida3. Florida residents tested outside of Florida Florida Residents Tested Elsewhere: The total number of Florida residents with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested outside of Florida, and were not exposed/infectious in Florida.Non-Florida Residents Tested in Florida: The total number of people with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested, exposed, and/or infectious while in Florida, but are legal residents of another state. Total Cases: The total (sum) number of Persons Under Investigation (PUI) who tested positive for COVID-19 while in Florida, as well as Florida residents who tested positive or were exposed/contagious while outside of Florida, and out-of-state residents who were exposed, contagious and/or tested in Florida.Deaths: The Deaths by Day chart shows the total number of Florida residents with confirmed COVID-19 that died on each calendar day (12:00 AM - 11:59 PM). Caution should be used in interpreting recent trends, as deaths are added as they are reported to the Department. Death data often has significant delays in reporting, so data within the past two weeks will be updated frequently.Prefix guide: "PUI" = PUI: Persons under surveillance (any person for which we have data about)"T_ " = Testing: Testing information for all PUIs and cases."C_" = Cases only: Information about cases, which are those persons who have COVID-19 positive test results on file“W_” = Surveillance and syndromic dataKey Data about Testing:T_negative : Testing: Total negative persons tested for all Florida and non-Florida residents, including Florida residents tested outside of the state, and those tested at private facilities.T_positive : Testing: Total positive persons tested for all Florida and non-Florida resident types, including Florida residents tested outside of the state, and those tested at private facilities.PUILab_Yes : All persons tested with lab results on file, including negative, positive and inconclusive.

All questions regarding this dataset should be directed to the Florida Department of Health.

Note: Reporting of new COVID-19 Case Surveillance data will be discontinued July 1, 2024, to align with the process of removing SARS-CoV-2 infections (COVID-19 cases) from the list of nationally notifiable diseases. Although these data will continue to be publicly available, the dataset will no longer be updated.

Authorizations to collect certain public health data expired at the end of the U.S. public health emergency declaration on May 11, 2023. The following jurisdictions discontinued COVID-19 case notifications to CDC: Iowa (11/8/21), Kansas (5/12/23), Kentucky (1/1/24), Louisiana (10/31/23), New Hampshire (5/23/23), and Oklahoma (5/2/23). Please note that these jurisdictions will not routinely send new case data after the dates indicated. As of 7/13/23, case notifications from Oregon will only include pediatric cases resulting in death.

This case surveillance public use dataset has 12 elements for all COVID-19 cases shared with CDC and includes demographics, any exposure history, disease severity indicators and outcomes, presence of any underlying medical conditions and risk behaviors, and no geographic data.

CDC has three COVID-19 case surveillance datasets:

• COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data with Geography: Public use, patient-level dataset with clinical data (including symptoms), demographics, and county and state of residence. (19 data elements)
• COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data: Public use, patient-level dataset with clinical and symptom data and demographics, with no geographic data. (12 data elements)
• COVID-19 Case Surveillance Restricted Access Detailed Data: Restricted access, patient-level dataset with clinical and symptom data, demographics, and state and county of residence. Access requires a registration process and a data use agreement. (33 data elements)

• Data elements can be found on the COVID-19 case report form located at www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/downloads/pui-form.pdf.
• Data are considered provisional by CDC and are subject to change until the data are reconciled and verified with the state and territorial data providers.
• Some data cells are suppressed to protect individual privacy.
• The datasets will include all cases with the earliest date available in each record (date received by CDC or date related to illness/specimen collection) at least 14 days prior to the creation of the current datasets. This 14-day lag allows case reporting to be stabilized and ensures that time-dependent outcome data are accurately captured.
• Datasets are updated monthly.
• Datasets are created using CDC’s Policy on Public Health Research and Nonresearch Data Management and Access and include protections designed to protect individual privacy.

Overview

The COVID-19 case surveillance database includes individual-level data reported to U.S. states and autonomous reporting entities, including New York City and the District of Columbia (D.C.), as well as U.S. territories and affiliates. On April 5, 2020, COVID-19 was added to the Nationally Notifiable Condition List and classified as “immediately notifiable, urgent (within 24 hours)” by a Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) Interim Position Statement (Interim-20-ID-01). CSTE updated the position statement on August 5, 2020, to clarify the interpretation of antigen detection tests and serologic test results within the case classification (Interim-20-ID-02). The statement also recommended that all states and territories enact laws to make COVID-19 reportable in their jurisdiction, and that jurisdictions conducting surveillance should submit case notifications to CDC. COVID-19 case surveillance data are collected by jurisdictions and reported voluntarily to CDC.

For more information: NNDSS Supports the COVID-19 Response | CDC.

The deidentified data in the “COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data” include demographic characteristics, any exposure history, disease severity indicators and outcomes, clinical data, laboratory diagnostic test results, and presence of any underlying medical conditions and risk behaviors. All data elements can be found on the COVID-19 case report form located at www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/downloads/pui-form.pdf.

COVID-19 Case Reports

COVID-19 case reports have been routinely submitted using nationally standardized case reporting forms. On April 5, 2020, CSTE released an Interim Position Statement with national surveillance case definitions for COVID-19 included. Current versions of these case definitions are available here: https://ndc.services.cdc.gov/case-definitions/coronavirus-disease-2019-2021/.

All cases reported on or after were requested to be shared by public health departments to CDC using the standardized case definitions for laboratory-confirmed or probable cases. On May 5, 2020, the standardized case reporting form was revised. Case reporting using this new form is ongoing among U.S. states and territories.

Data are Considered Provisional

• The COVID-19 case surveillance data are dynamic; case reports can be modified at any time by the jurisdictions sharing COVID-19 data with CDC. CDC may update prior cases shared with CDC based on any updated information from jurisdictions. For instance, as new information is gathered about previously reported cases, health departments provide updated data to CDC. As more information and data become available, analyses might find changes in surveillance data and trends during a previously reported time window. Data may also be shared late with CDC due to the volume of COVID-19 cases.
• Annual finalized data: To create the final NNDSS data used in the annual tables, CDC works carefully with the reporting jurisdictions to reconcile the data received during the year until each state or territorial epidemiologist confirms that the data from their area are correct.
• Access Addressing Gaps in Public Health Reporting of Race and Ethnicity for COVID-19, a report from the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists, to better understand the challenges in completing race and ethnicity data for COVID-19 and recommendations for improvement.

Data Limitations

To learn more about the limitations in using case surveillance data, visit FAQ: COVID-19 Data and Surveillance.

Data Quality Assurance Procedures

CDC’s Case Surveillance Section routinely performs data quality assurance procedures (i.e., ongoing corrections and logic checks to address data errors). To date, the following data cleaning steps have been implemented:

• Questions that have been left unanswered (blank) on the case report form are reclassified to a Missing value, if applicable to the question. For example, in the question “Was the individual hospitalized?” where the possible answer choices include “Yes,” “No,” or “Unknown,” the blank value is recoded to Missing because the case report form did not include a response to the question.
• Logic checks are performed for date data. If an illogical date has been provided, CDC reviews the data with the reporting jurisdiction. For example, if a symptom onset date in the future is reported to CDC, this value is set to null until the reporting jurisdiction updates the date appropriately.
• Additional data quality processing to recode free text data is ongoing. Data on symptoms, race and ethnicity, and healthcare worker status have been prioritized.

Data Suppression

To prevent release of data that could be used to identify people, data cells are suppressed for low frequency (<5) records and indirect identifiers (e.g., date of first positive specimen). Suppression includes rare combinations of demographic characteristics (sex, age group, race/ethnicity). Suppressed values are re-coded to the NA answer option; records with data suppression are never removed.

For questions, please contact Ask SRRG (eocevent394@cdc.gov).

Additional COVID-19 Data

COVID-19 data are available to the public as summary or aggregate count files, including total counts of cases and deaths by state and by county. These

Archives for this data layer begin on 5/11/2020. Archived data was exported directly from the live FDOH layer into the archive by the University of South Florida Libraries - Digital Heritage and Humanities Collection.For data definitions please visit the following box folder: https://usf.box.com/s/vfjwbczkj73ucj19yvwz53at6v6w614hData definition files names include the relative date they were published. The below information was taken from ancillary documents associated with the original layer from the Florida Department of Health. This data table represents all laboratory-confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Florida tabulated from the previous day's totals by the Florida Department of Health. Persons Under Investigation/Surveillance (PUI):Essentially, PUIs are any person who has been or is waiting to be tested. This includes: persons who are considered high-risk for COVID-19 due to recent travel, contact with a known case, exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 as determined by a healthcare professional, or some combination thereof. PUI’s also include people who meet laboratory testing criteria based on symptoms and exposure, as well as confirmed cases with positive test results. PUIs include any person who is or was being tested, including those with negative and pending results.All PUIs fit into one of three residency types:1. Florida residents tested in Florida2. Non-Florida residents tested in Florida 3. Florida residents tested outside of Florida Florida Residents Tested Elsewhere: The total number of Florida residents with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested outsideof Florida, and were not exposed/infectious in Florida. Non-Florida Residents Tested in Florida: The total number of people with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested, exposed, and/or infectious while in Florida, but are legal residents of another state.Table Guide for Records of Confirmed Positive Cases of COVID-19"County": The Florida county where the individual with COVID-19's case has been processed. "Jurisdiction" of the case:"FL resident" -- a resident of Florida"Non-FL resident" -- someone who resides outside of Florida "Travel_Related": Whether or not the positive case of COVID-19 is designated as related to recent travel by the individual. "No" -- Case designated as not being a risk related to recent travel"Unknown" -- Case designated where a travel-related designation has not yet been made."Yes" -- Case is designated as travel-related for a person who recently traveled overseas or to an area with community"Origin": Where the person likely contracted the virus before arriving / returning to Florida."EDvisit": Whether or not an individual who tested positive for coronavirus visited and was admitted to an Emergency Department related to health conditions surrounding COVID-19."No" -- Individual was not admitted to an emergency department relating to health conditions surrounding the contraction of COVID-19"Unknown" -- It is unknown whether the individual was admitted to an emergency department relating to health conditions surrounding the contraction of COVID-19"Yes" -- Individual was admitted to an emergency department relating to health conditions surrounding the contraction of COVID-19“Hospitalized”: Whether or not a patient who receives a positive laboratory confirmed test for COVID-19 receives inpatient care at a hospital at any time during illness. These people may no longer be hospitalized. This information does not indicate that a COVID-19 positive person is currently hospitalized, only that they have been hospitalized for health conditions relating to COVID-19 at some point during their illness. "No" -- Individual was not admitted for inpatient care at a hospital at any time during illness "Unknown" -- It is unknown whether the individual was admitted for inpatient care at a hospital at any time during illness "Yes" -- Individual was admitted for inpatient care at a hospital at some point during the illness "Died": Whether or not the individual who tested positive for COVID-19 died as a result of health complications from the viral infection. "NA" -- Not applicable / resident has not died "Yes" -- Individual died of a health complication resulting from COVID-19 "Contact": Whether the person contracted COVID-19 from contact with current or previously confirmedcases."No" -- Case with no known contact with current or previously confirmed cases"Yes" -- Case with known contact with current or previously confirmed cases"Unknown" -- Case where contact with current or previous confirmedcases is not known or under investigation"Case_": The date the positive laboratory result was received in the Department of Health’s database system and became a “confirmed case.” This is not the date a person contracted the virus, became symptomatic, or was treated. Florida does not create a case or count suspected/probable cases in the case counts without a confirmed-positive lab result. "EventDate": When the individual reported likely first experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19. "ChartDate": Also the date the positive laboratory result for an individual was received in the Department ofHealth’s database system and became a recorded, “confirmed case” of COVID-19 in the state. Data definitions updated by the FDOH on 5/13/2020.

Locally and across the United States, social and economic inequities have placed certain communities at higher risk of COVID-19. Public Health - Seattle & King County developed a social and economic risk index (SERI) to examine social and economic disparities in COVID-19 outcomes. This dashboard shows the index at census tract-level for King County.

Higher scores on SERI indicate communities with higher levels of social and economic risk, and lower scores indicate lower levels of risk.

BackgroundAlthough the burden of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been different across communities in the US, little is known about the disparities in COVID-19 burden in North Dakota (ND) and yet this information is important for guiding planning and provision of health services. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify geographic disparities of COVID-19 hospitalization risks in ND.MethodsData on COVID-19 hospitalizations from March 2020 to September 2021 were obtained from the ND Department of Health. Monthly hospitalization risks were computed and temporal changes in hospitalization risks were assessed graphically. County-level age-adjusted and spatial empirical Bayes (SEB) smoothed hospitalization risks were computed. Geographic distributions of both unsmoothed and smoothed hospitalization risks were visualized using choropleth maps. Clusters of counties with high hospitalization risks were identified using Kulldorff's circular and Tango's flexible spatial scan statistics and displayed on maps.ResultsThere was a total of 4,938 COVID-19 hospitalizations during the study period. Overall, hospitalization risks were relatively stable from January to July and spiked in the fall. The highest COVID-19 hospitalization risk was observed in November 2020 (153 hospitalizations per 100,000 persons) while the lowest was in March 2020 (4 hospitalizations per 100,000 persons). Counties in the western and central parts of the state tended to have consistently high age-adjusted hospitalization risks, while low age-adjusted hospitalization risks were observed in the east. Significant high hospitalization risk clusters were identified in the north-west and south-central parts of the state.ConclusionsThe findings confirm that geographic disparities in COVID-19 hospitalization risks exist in ND. Specific attention is required to address counties with high hospitalization risks, especially those located in the north-west and south-central parts of ND. Future studies will investigate determinants of the identified disparities in hospitalization risks.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Veterans in America

County-Level Data on Veteran Cases and Proportion of Population

About this dataset

Welcome to the Kaggle dataset on The Impact of COVID-19 on Veterans in the United States! This dataset contains data on confirmed cases of COVID-19 in counties across the United States, as well as information on the percentage of each county's population that are veterans. With this dataset, you can investigate how the pandemic has impacted veterans specifically, and compare veteran case rates to the general population. How do veteran cases differ across age groups? Are there any geographical patterns? What can we learn about risk factors for COVID-19 among veterans? Download the dataset and explore for yourself today!

How to use the dataset

This dataset includes information on the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 by county, as well as the percentage of the population in each county that are veterans. This data can be used to examine the relationship between veteran cases and the proportion of population who are veterans.

To do this, simply look at the 'CASES' and 'VET_CASES' columns for each county. The 'CASES' column represents the total number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in that county, while the 'VET_CASES' column represents the number of confirmed cases among veterans. To compare these two values, simply divide 'VET_CASES' by 'CASES'. This will give you a ratio of veteran cases to total cases for each county.

You can then use this ratio to compare counties and see which ones have a higher proportion of veteran cases. This data can be used to help understand where more outreach may be needed to support veterans during this pandemic

Research Ideas

• Find the correlation between the number of veterans in a county and the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19.
• Find the counties with the highest percentage of veterans and the lowest number of confirmed cases of COVID-19.
• Predict how many veterans in a county will contract COVID-19 based on the percentage of veterans in the population

Total Cases: The total (sum) number of Persons Under Investigation (PUI) who tested positive for COVID-19 while in Florida, as well as Florida residents who tested positive or were exposed/contagious while outside of Florida, and out-of-state residents who were exposed, contagious and/or tested in Florida.Deaths: The Deaths by Day chart shows the total number of Florida residents with confirmed COVID-19 that died on each calendar day (12:00 AM - 11:59 PM). Caution should be used in interpreting recent trends, as deaths are added as they are reported to the Department. Death data often has significant delays in reporting, so data within the past two weeks will be updated frequently.Prefix guide: "PUI" = PUI: Persons under surveillance (any person for which we have data about)"T_ " = Testing: Testing information for all PUIs and cases."C_" = Cases only: Information about cases, which are those persons who have COVID-19 positive test results on file“W_” = Surveillance and syndromic dataKey Data about Testing:T_negative : Testing: Total negative persons tested for all Florida and non-Florida residents, including Florida residents tested outside of the state, and those tested at private facilities.T_positive : Testing: Total positive persons tested for all Florida and non-Florida resident types, including Florida residents tested outside of the state, and those tested at private facilities.PUILab_Yes : All persons tested with lab results on file, including negative, positive and inconclusive.

For data prior to 5/10/2020: Data was exported by the University of South Florida - Digital Heritage and Humanities Collection using ArcGIS Pro Software. Data was then converted to shapefile and csv and uploaded into ArcGIS Online archive. Up until 3/25 the FDOH Cases by County layer was updated twice a day, archives are taken from the 11AM update.For data definitions please visit the following box folder: https://usf.box.com/s/vfjwbczkj73ucj19yvwz53at6v6w614hData definition files names include the relative date they were published. The below information was taken from ancillary documents associated with the original layer from FDOH.Persons Under Investigation/Surveillance (PUI):Essentially, PUIs are any person who has been or is waiting to be tested. This includes: persons who are considered high-risk for COVID-19 due to recent travel, contact with a known case, exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 as determined by a healthcare professional, or some combination thereof. PUI’s also include people who meet laboratory testing criteria based on symptoms and exposure, as well as confirmed cases with positive test results. PUIs include any person who is or was being tested, including those with negative and pending results. All PUIs fit into one of three residency types: 1. Florida residents tested in Florida2. Non-Florida residents tested in Florida3. Florida residents tested outside of Florida Florida Residents Tested Elsewhere: The total number of Florida residents with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested outside of Florida, and were not exposed/infectious in Florida.Non-Florida Residents Tested in Florida: The total number of people with positive COVID-19 test results who were tested, exposed, and/or infectious while in Florida, but are legal residents of another state.
