USA COVID-19 Data State by State

03/30/2020 9:17 AM

Here's the best site I've seen for getting a grasp of where things stand and where they are are potentially heading in the US.

Without good information it's tough to grasp the severity of the situation.

Keep an eye on things and plan to stay off the curve.

Won't open for me. Their server probably thinks it is under a Denial-Of-Service (DOS) attack.

I saw a map from the CDC or NIH or one of those, but it was in absolute numbers. That is not good information. Better information is to code the infections on a per capita basis. Then you have a better picture of the infection rate.

A thousand cases in Iowa is far different than a thousand cases in New York City.

Yep, works in FireFox but not IE on my machine. It does have data. It will be interesting to see how closely the actuals follow their projections.

Right?

With the lag in available testing, I can how those numbers will jump.

They could go down by the same token.

If a significant percentage of people contract the disease but have few symptoms, we won't know about those unless they get tested for the anti-bodies.

Only those who have significant symptoms are going to get tested, especially considering the current strain on the medical care system.

We can only wait and see.

Without comprehensive testing the US numbers are WAGs (wild assed guesses) pro rated back from hospitalizations. The US is finally getting large numbers of tests done but on a per capita basis is way behind Korea and so has no idea of the problem. To be fair the US isnt as incompetent as my own home of the UK. It would not be a surprise to see huge ramps in hospitalization over the coming weeks because the sheer size of the problem is unknown

Just in case anyone was wondering Trump was not even close on the population of Seoul - the city has about 10 million the greater urban area 25milion which is almost half the national population of 55million. TBF its a stupid game to guess populations of cities its what 8 yr old boys do, but when he is bragging about his knowledge and gets it so far wrong well someone needs to get a grip

Given that the US expert who has had to gently resteer Trump's press conferences is reckoning on 100k - 200k I suspect this website is undershooting

I too is wondering what the testing can accomplish if people are not limiting their exposures?

If a fellow test positive then the person can be isolated, but what about those that tested negative?

A person being negative can be positive the following day?

What good will testing if no medication is available? It is just giving the negative tested people a false sense of security..

Similar to those that wear masks, thinking it will prevent them from getting the virus? Not realizing there is a correct way and a wrong way of donning those masks?

I'm on IE and also get nothing.

I suspect that the graphs might be following what seemed to happen in Australia. They seem to have predicted a "believable" number to maintain some level of political and public trust and then once the public had been educated in what the graphs meant they could talk about possible future scenarios.

Using that tool, they have been able to gently escalate the restrictions on people moving around. (And there have been a few administrative mistakes with cruise ship disembarking.)

We're about to beak through 5,000 diagnosed cases across the country and too early to reference mortality to infection since more than 50% of those cases have been diagnosed in the last few days.

Restrictions here are that meetings of more than 2 people is an offence, on the spot fines and potential jail. Exception is 5 for weddings (Celebrant, bride, groom and 2 witnesses) and 10 for funerals.

Pubs, clubs, bars, sports (even golf), playgrounds, public toilets, caravan parks, gyms, cinemas and so on are closed under order nationwide. Remote communities (of mostly indigenous peoples) are closed to all outsiders. State borders are closed.

Our Easter (autumn) school break is about to commence. Everyone is to stay at their primary residence. No scooting through to a place in the bush or an isolated place on the coast. The country people have just endured bushfires on the end of three years of drought and mayors are insisting that the tourists are not welcome, since they will be coming from the recognised "hot spots" and the rural resources could not cope with potential infection numbers.

Travelling from your home is to be for work (If you cannot work from home), shopping (For groceries and essentials), school (Teachers and children of essential services staff), medical visits (Phone ahead)

For those with ongoing medication, pharmacies are authorised to dispense continuation medication without prescription, since people either cannot get to see a GP or the GPs are locum and reside in other towns or cities.

To get to this situation was achieved by frequent incremental increases in constraints supported by both "sides" of politics with the national interest at heart.

There is still a long way to go. I don't think that I will see my wife until after Christmas as we are around 550km apart requiring travel across at least 7 local government areas where the next level of "border control" will be implemented. There are already some trials in place where communities span borders.

Thanks JE. Facts inform intelligent decisions. More facts, less politically motivated hokum would be helpful.

Multiple uses of the word " projected " is not very confidence inspiring.

When you are creating documents there are times you need to include peculiar statements, words or phrases in a this climate of "cover your butt" legal speak.

Is the word possible possible?

Omitting it could be viewed as an oversight that would cause the saber rattlers to come a' knockin'.

Yes, this is a useful resource. Not only for US but European countries are also covered.

For those have difficulty accessing it, I can access it using chrome.

Setting up for overflow in Washington is about like setting up a coast guard station in West Virginia.

Wow!
