Since tracking and analyzing data is what I'm best known for...and since I'm mostly stuck sitting in front of the computer all day whether I like it or not these days anyway...I've started my own daily COVID-19 spreadsheet.
Again, I'm not the one who compiled the data itself--many other teams with far better resources than I have are doing that--but I'm pulling their work together and adding some additional context, such as per capita info by state/territory.
Nationally:
- 5.44 million tests have been completed in the U.S. (1.6% of the population)
- 26,500 more Americans tested positive today. 987,000 have tested positive to date (3.0 per thousand)
The U.S. is going to break 1 million positive cases sometime Monday afternoon.
- Another 1,100 Americans died today. Over 55,400 have died to date.
- The U.S. Case Fatality Rate (CFR) now stands at 5.6%.
- The U.S. case count has increased 29% over the past week, and the total U.S. death toll has increased by 37%.
New York:
- 805,000 tests have been completed on New Yorkers to date (4.1% of the population)
- 5,700 more New Yorkers tested positive today. Over 294,000 have tested positive to date (1.5% of the population).
- 367 more New Yorkers died today. 22,275 have died so far. That's 1.1 out of every 1,000 New Yorkers.
- New York's CFR is 7.6%, second only to the Northern Mariana Islands and Michigan.
- New York's cases have increased 19% over the past week. The death toll has risen 22%.
Michigan (my home state):
- 194,000 tests have been completed on Michiganders to date (1.9% of the population)
- 575 more Michiganders tested positive today. 37,800 have tested positive to date (3.8 per thousand).
- 41 more Michiganders died today. 3,300 Michiganders have died of COVID-19 to date.
This is the lowest daily number of fatalities in Michigan in nearly a month, I believe. While this is relatively good news, it's also important to keep in mind that Sunday numbers tend to be lower due to delayed test/reporting results, so it's possible that there will be a surge of late numbers coming in tomorrow or Tuesday.
- Michigan continues to have the highest CFR of any state at 8.8%.
- Michigan's cases have increased 20% in the past week. Our death toll has increased 39%.
Other States/Territories:
- Rhode Island continues to have tested the highest per capita of their population (5.0%).
- Nebraska doubled their case total over the past week. Iowa increased theirs by 88%.
- Wyoming, Minnesota and Nebraska both doubled their death tolls over the past week.
