Summary The 7-day average percent positive rate for COVID-19 tests administered in each Maryland jurisdiction.

Description The 7-day percent positive rate is a rolling average of each day’s positivity percentage. The percentage is calculated using the total number of tests electronically reported to MDH (by date of report) and the number of positive tests electronically reported to MDH (by date of report). Electronic lab reports from NEDDSS.

Summary The cumulative number of confirmed COVID-19 deaths among Maryland residents within a single Maryland jurisdiction.

Description The MD COVID-19 - Confirmed Deaths by County data layer is a collection of the statewide confirmed COVID-19 related deaths that have been reported each day by the Vital Statistics Administration that have occurred in each Maryland jurisdiction. A death is classified as confirmed if the person had a laboratory-confirmed positive COVID-19 test result. Some data on deaths may be unavailable due to the time lag between the death, typically reported by a hospital or other facility, and the submission of the complete death certificate. This data layer does not include probable deaths. Probable deaths are available from the MD COVID-19 - Probable Deaths by County data layer.

Summary This layer has been DEPRECATED. (last updated 12/1/2021). Was formerly a weekly update.

The Outbreak-Associated Cases in Congregate Living data dashboard on coronavirus.maryland.gov was redesigned on 11/17/21 to align with other outbreak reporting. Visit https://opendata.maryland.gov/dataset/MD-COVID-19-Congregate-Outbreak/ey5n-qn5s to view Outbreak-Associated Cases in Congregate Living data as reported after 11/17/21.

Confirmed COVID-19 cases among Maryland residents who live and work in congregate living facilities in Maryland for the reporting period.

Description The MD COVID-19 - Total Cases in Congregate Facility Settings data layer is a total of positive COVID-19 test results have been reported to MDH in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, group homes of 10 or more and state and local facilities for the reporting period. Data are reported to MDH by local health departments, the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services and the Department of Juvenile Services. To appear on the list, facilities report at least one confirmed case of COVID-19 over the prior 14 days. Facilities are removed from the list when health officials determine 14 days have passed with no new cases and no tests pending. The list provides a point-in-time picture of COVID-19 case activity among these facilities. Numbers reported for each facility listed reflect totals ever reported for cases. Data are updated once weekly.
