State-level Metrics
New tests (Notes)Total PCR tests (specimens)
New cases
Current hospitalizations
New deaths
- Dec 10: On December 10, 2020 we backfilled Arizona’s Total PCR tests (specimens). This time series maps tests to days based on the date that the specimen was collected, and as a result there is missing data in the previous days.
We calculate daily changes based on the data states report each day. Some states report new cases, tests, and deaths using other methods. Please consult official state data sources for more information. We chart “New tests” using different units across jurisdictions, because not all states and territories report tests in the same units. Learn more about total test units and see what we chart for each jurisdiction in our total tests documentation.
We do not have a complete dataset for every metric in every state. If we have data for less than 30% of the past 90 days for a given metric, you’ll see a warning instead of a chart for that metric.
All the data for these charts is available for download. You can also review tabular national data on our US historical data page and data for each state and territory on the individual state or territory’s overview page.

Race & ethnicity data
We compute the number of cases and deaths per 100k people for each race and ethnicity.
These numbers show the scale of outcomes compared to the size of each group’s population. These are not the number of cases or deaths, rather the proportion of each demographic group who have been affected.
Race & ethnicity: cases per capita

Only New York and Arizona have more than 400 people hospitalized with COVID-19 per million residents. A month ago, 19 states exceeded that level.

Correction: Earlier today, we tweeted that Indigenous people in AZ are 3x more likely to have been hospitalized with COVID-19 than their white neighbors. The correct number is 2.4x. We apologize for the error.
January 21, 2021
Our eyes are on 5 states this week: AL, AZ, CA, GA, and FL―where surges in cases, hospitalizations, and deaths are steadily growing. Alarmingly, AZ currently has the worst per-capita new case numbers in the world.
January 15, 2021
Hospitalizations in CA and AZ are increasing at an alarming rate. AZ has far surpassed their summer surge.

But some small states have severe problems, too. Alabama, Arizona, and Nevada have very high hospitalization rates per capita.
