I gathered a number of reliable covid-19 information sources at the national level in Covid-19 State by State: Data Sources. Now I want to create a list of the best resources at the state and territory level. I can do some of the research, and you can help in the comments. We want the best official data sources, such as state health department Web pages on covid-19 or coronavirus.
It turns out that others are ahead of us.

The COVID Tracking Project is not the best site to visit if your primary interest is the latest big board number showing total cases across the country. But they are a fantastic resource when it comes to state level data, including information on the extent of testing and links to state health departments. Their historical data also allows for states to be compared in ways that are not just interesting, but make it possible to see past the flurry of numbers and show both red flags of alarm along with fingers-crossed glimmers of hope.
Here is another important national source, with state and county-level data on fevers, from Kinsa's digital thermometers. Not all fevers are covid-19, but the correlation is close enough for some predictive purposes
Florida is still the hot spot on Kinsa’s fever map, but less than was feared. Some of these high temperatures indicate early flu infections, some Covid-19, some other infections. All of them will develop fully in the next week or so, and then last another week or two each.
Fevers, indicating flu-like illnesses, were above the blue trend line from past years before social distancing took effect, and are now well below the previous trend. Social distancing is protecting us from many infections.
Covid Act Now also has state-by-state data, and what can be done about it in the more recalcitrant states.
Public leaders & health officials: The only thing that matters right now is the speed of your response.
This model is intended to help make fast decisions, not predict the future.
The interactive Wunder map at Weather Underground shows estimates for counties, taken from state health department reports. Here is southern Indiana.
Let's begin here, in the seat of our national government, even though it isn't a state. Republicans have decided to short it on resources in the $2T bill they just voted for, treating it as a territory in the funding formula, not applying the state criteria. It's as if they
want to be surrounded by the sick and dying. (Which some of them do. See
Dying of Whiteness, by Dr. Jonathan Metzl of the CDC.)
