COVID-19 isn't affecting all communities equally. We've partnered with Anti-Racism Policy Center to collect the most complete racial data anywhere in the COVID Racial Data Tracker.
We're tracking racial and ethnic data from every state that reports it—and pushing those that don't to start. Together with the Anti-Racism Policy Center, we're analyzing this data to uncover the true impact of the outbreak on vulnerable communities.

Johns Hopkins
Johns Hopkins relies on our testing data for its COVID-19 Testing Insights Initiative, which brings data and expert analysis together in one place. The initiative is designed to help policymakers and the public understand the trajectory of the pandemic, and make decisions about the path forward.
The White House
The White House chose the COVID Tracking Project as the best source to cite for daily US test numbers in its “Opening Up America Again” testing strategy.
COVID Exit Strategy
Created by a group of public health and crisis experts, covidexitstrategy.org identifies critical interventions needed to stop the spread of COVID-19, and urges government decision-makers to apply them. They use our data to power a dashboard comparing each state's interventions and testing levels with case counts and deaths over time.

We’re Launching a New State Grading System
We're rolling out a new, more rigorous system for grading the public health data each state reports. This new scoring system sets a more comprehensive and exact standard for evaluating how complete and meaningful each state’s data is.
Tracking Race and Ethnicity in the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic isn't affecting all communities the same way. That's why we're partnering with American University’s Antiracist Research & Policy Center to launch a new project: the COVID Racial Data Tracker.
