About this data Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Notes: The hospitals map shows the average I.C.U. occupancy at nearby hospitals in the most recent week with data reported. The data is self-reported to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services by individual hospitals. It excludes counts from hospitals operated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the Indian Health Service. Numbers for hospitalized patients are based on inpatient beds and include I.C.U. beds. Hospitalized Covid-19 patients include both confirmed and suspected Covid-19 patients. The C.D.C. stopped reporting data on cases in May 2023.

About this data Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Notes: Weekly county death data prior to Jan. 2021 was not reported by the C.D.C. and is sourced from reporting by The New York Times. Hospitalization data is a weekly average of Covid-19 patients in hospital service areas that intersect with New York City. Hospitalization numbers early in the pandemic are undercounts due to incomplete reporting by hospitals to the federal government.

Vaccination rates by county

Uptake of the bivalent booster is low across most of the country, despite being the government’s recommended level of protection against the virus. Bivalent booster coverage is highest among seniors, one of the most vulnerable groups. County data does not include breakdowns for some age groups below. Statewide, 3% of vaccinations did not specify the person’s home county.
