This dataset includes the cumulative number and percent of healthcare facility-reported fatalities for patients with lab-confirmed COVID-19 disease by reporting date and age group. This dataset does not include fatalities related to COVID-19 disease that did not occur at a hospital, nursing home, or adult care facility. The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users with information about healthcare facility fatalities among patients with lab-confirmed COVID-19 disease.

The information in this dataset is also updated daily on the NYS COVID-19 Tracker at https://www.ny.gov/covid-19tracker.

The data source for this dataset is the daily COVID-19 survey through the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Health Electronic Response Data System (HERDS). Hospitals, nursing homes, and adult care facilities are required to complete this survey daily. The information from the survey is used for statewide surveillance, planning, resource allocation, and emergency response activities. Hospitals began reporting for the HERDS COVID-19 survey in March 2020, while Nursing Homes and Adult Care Facilities began reporting in April 2020. It is important to note that fatalities related to COVID-19 disease that occurred prior to the first publication dates are also included.

The fatality numbers in this dataset are calculated by assigning age groups to each patient based on the patient age, then summing the patient fatalities within each age group, as of each reporting date. The statewide total fatality numbers are calculated by summing the number of fatalities across all age groups, by reporting date. The fatality percentages are calculated by dividing the number of fatalities in each age group by the statewide total number of fatalities, by reporting date. The fatality numbers represent the cumulative number of fatalities that have been reported as of each reporting date.

As of March 7, 2021, there have been 39,029 deaths due to COVID-19 in the state of New York, with the first 3 deaths reported on March 14, 2020. This statistic shows the cumulative number of deaths related to COVID-19 in New York State from March 14 to March 7, 2021, by day.

This dataset includes information on the number of positive tests of individuals for COVID-19 infection performed in New York State beginning March 1, 2020, when the first case of COVID-19 was identified in the state. The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about local disease spread and reporting of positive cases. The data will be updated daily, reflecting tests reported by 12:00 am (midnight) three days prior. Data are published on a three-day lag in order to allow all test results to be reported.

Reporting of SARS-CoV2 laboratory testing results is mandated under Part 2 of the New York State Sanitary Code. Clinical laboratories, as defined in Public Health Law (PHL) § 571 electronically report test results to the New York State Department of Health (DOH) via the Electronic Clinical Laboratory Reporting System (ECLRS). The DOH Division of Epidemiology’s Bureau of Surveillance and Data System (BSDS) monitors ECLRS reporting and ensures that all results are accurate.

Test counts are based on specimen collection date. A person may have multiple specimens tested on one day, these would be counted one time, i.e., if two specimens are collected from an individual at the same time and then evaluated, the outcome of the evaluation of those two samples to diagnose the individual is counted as a single test of one person, even though the specimens may be tested separately. All positive test results that are at least 90 days apart are counted as cases/new positives.

New positive test counts are assigned to a county based on this order of preference: 1) the patient’s address, 2) the ordering healthcare provider/campus address, or 3) the ordering facility/campus address.

As of December 16, 2022, there had been almost 6.37 million COVID-19 cases in New York State, with 2.97 million cases found in New York City. New York has been one of the U.S. states most impacted by the pandemic, recording the highest number of deaths in the country.

A closer look at the outbreak in New York Towards the middle of December 2022, the number of deaths due to the coronavirus in New York State had reached almost 60 thousand, and almost half of those deaths were in New York City. However, the number of new daily deaths in New York City peaked early in the pandemic and although there have been times when the number of new daily deaths surged, they have not gotten close to reaching the levels seen at the beginning of the pandemic. New York City is made up of five counties, which are more commonly known by their borough names – Staten Island is the borough with the highest rate of COVID-19 cases.

Note: As of November 10, 2023, this dataset has been archived. For the current version of this data, please visit: https://health.data.ny.gov/d/gikn-znjh

This dataset reports daily on the number of people vaccinated by New York providers with at least one dose and with a complete COVID-19 vaccination series overall since December 14, 2020. New York providers include hospitals, mass vaccination sites operated by the State or local governments, pharmacies, and other providers registered with the State to serve as points of distribution.

This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to the New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS) and the New York City Citywide Immunization Registry (NYC CIR). County-level vaccination data is based on data reported to NYSIIS and NYC CIR by the providers administering vaccines. Residency is self-reported by the individual being vaccinated. This data does not include vaccine administered through Federal entities or performed outside of New York State to New York residents. NYSIIS and CIR data is used for county-level statistics. New York State Department of Health requires all New York State vaccination providers to report all COVID-19 vaccination administration data to NYSIIS and NYC CIR within 24 hours of administration.

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.

This dataset tracks the updates made on the dataset "New York State Statewide COVID-19 Testing By Age Group (Archived)" as a repository for previous versions of the data and metadata.

In the state of New York, Richmond and Rockland have the highest coronavirus case rates when adjusted for the population of a county. Rockland County had around 1,404 positive cases per 10,000 people as of April 19, 2021.

The five boroughs of NYC With around 894,400 positive infections as of mid-April 2021, New York City has the highest number of coronavirus cases in New York State – this means that there were approximately 1,065 cases per 10,000 people. New York City is composed of five boroughs; each borough is coextensive with a county of New York State. Staten Island is the smallest in terms of population, but it is the borough with the highest rate of COVID-19 cases.

Public warned against complacency The number of new COVID-19 cases in New York City spiked for the second time as the winter holiday season led to an increase in social gatherings. New York State is slowly recovering – indoor dining reopened in February 2021 – but now is not the time for people to become complacent. Despite the positive rollout of vaccines, experts have urged citizens to adhere to guidelines and warned that face masks might have to be worn for at least another year.

Dataset includes the unique ID of a sample, the viral concentration in a sample, the concentration of human fecal indicators in samples, flow rates, locations, etc. These data can be used to analyze trends of SARS-CoV-2 concentrations in sewer system on a week-to-week basis and estimate COVID-19 transmission rates. For more information, visit https://www.health.ny.gov/environmental/wastewater.htm.

Note: This dataset is no longer being updated as of September 1, 2023. This dataset includes information on the number of tests of individuals for COVID-19 infection by zip code performed in New York State beginning March 1, 2020, when the first case of COVID-19 was identified in the state. The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about local disease spread and reporting of positive cases. The data will be updated weekly, reflecting tests completed by 2:00 pm on the day prior to the date of the update.

Note: On November 14, 2020, only 14 hours of laboratory data was collected and shared. The 2:00 pm cutoff time was implemented, allowing the NYSDOH to enhance data quality reviews. All other published laboratory data represented 24 hours of data collection. Prior to November 14, 2020 data reflected tests completed by 12:00 am (midnight) the day of the update (i.e., all tests reported by the end of the day on the day before the update).

As of April 4, 2022, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) no longer requires entities conducting COVID testing to report negative or indeterminate antigen test results. This may impact the number and interpretation of total test results reported to the state and also impacts calculation of test percent positivity. Total positives continues to include both PCR and antigen positive test results.

Note: This dataset is no longer being updated as of September 1, 2023. This dataset reports the number of reinfections in New York State since January 2021. A reinfection is when a person becomes infected with COVID and later becomes infected again. A person is considered a reinfection if they test positive again 90 days or more after their first positive test. The goal of this dataset is to provide users timely information about the trends in reinfections in New York State. This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to Electronica Clinical Laboratory Reporting System (ECLRS).

This dataset reports the number of people vaccinated by New York providers who have received a dose of the annual COVID-19 vaccine and the number who have received the annual Influenza vaccine, beginning with the 2024-2025 season.

Note: This dataset replaces two prior COVID-19 vaccination datasets. Please refer to the notes section below for links to the archived data.

As of April 19, 2021, there had been around 27 deaths due to COVID-19 in New York City per 10,000 population. New York has been one of the U.S. states most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with New York accounting for the most deaths of any state in the U.S. This statistic shows the death rates for coronavirus (COVID-19) in New York State as of April 19, 2021, by county.

Note: Data elements were retired from HERDS on 10/6/23 and this dataset was archived.

This dataset includes the cumulative number and percent of healthcare facility-reported fatalities for patients with lab-confirmed COVID-19 disease by reporting date and patient sex. This dataset does not include fatalities related to COVID-19 disease that did not occur at a hospital, nursing home, or adult care facility. The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users with information about healthcare facility fatalities among patients with lab-confirmed COVID-19 disease.

New York State Statewide COVID-19 Testing, Vaccination and Deaths by County

https://health.data.ny.gov/browse?limitTo=datasets&tags=covid

Note: This dataset is no longer updated. This dataset includes cumulative and weekly counts of the number of new COVID-19 cases reported, number of cases reached, percent cases reached, total contacts elicited, total elicited contacts reached, and percent contacts reached by each week. Please note: In the earlier days of the program, the number of cases represented the numbers reported by selected LHDs. Therefore, the volume could be much lower than all new COVID cases.

This dataset includes the different reopening statuses and health and safety guidelines that were assigned to individual industries during the State of New York’s COVID-19 declared state of emergency, which began on March 7, 2020, and ended on June 24, 2021.

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

Historical Coronavirus (Covid-19) Data for the United States

NEW: We are publishing the data behind our excess deaths tracker in order to provide researchers and the public with a better record of the true toll of the pandemic. This data is compiled from official national and municipal data for 24 countries. See the data and documentation in the excess-deaths/ directory.

[ 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.

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.
