known issues with the data
* Cases from counties named 'Out of <state>' are not represented (these have no geographic representation)
  • Cases from counties named 'Unassigned' are not represented (these have no geographic representation)
  • The following states were skipped, because their number of 'unassigned' deaths exceeded 10% of the state total: Nebraska, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Wyoming
  • The data from Dukes and Nantucket, MA may be distorted because sources represent them differently.
  • The data from the 5 counties of New York City are merged and prevalence is calculated jointly.
  • Cases from counties "Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC)" and "Federal Correctional Institution (FCI)" (both Michigan) are not represented (these have no geographic representation)
  • The data from the health districts of Utah span multiple counties and prevalence is calculated for those jointly.
  • The data from the 4 counties and city of Kansas City (Jackson, Clay, Platte, Cass) are merged and prevalence is calculated jointly.
