• County & state data (except cumulative death data) from MDPH COVID-19 Weekly Public Health Report: data for last two weeks (8/9-8/22) pulled from 8/26/2020 report; prior two week period (8/2-8/15) pulled from 8/19/20 report.

• Cumulative death data from MDPH COVID-19 Daily Dashboard 8/26/2020.

Note about comparisons to previous two-week period: Symbols indicate change when compared to prior two-week period.  For new cases, incidence per 100,000, and total tests: Higher (upward arrow) means the number in the current two-week period is higher than the prior period. Lower (downward arrow) means the number in the current two-week period is lower than prior two-week period. No change (equal sign) means the number in the current two-week period is the same as the prior period. For percent positivity: less than 0.10% difference in the percent positivity is considered No change (equal sign)

Note: MDPH changed their reporting of county data on 8/12/20. Previously, county cases were in the Daily COVID-19 Dashboard report and included probable and confirmed cases. Beginning 8/12/20, county data is now reported in the Weekly COVID-19 report and cases only include confirmed cases. Thus, we are not currently able to show new case county-level data and other county-level data over time for periods prior to 8/12/20.
