Numbers are going down, but they're still very high.
—even more infectious than Delta, and more likely to cause breakthrough COVID—and with it, a new surge. Cases are thankfully once again on a downward trajectory, but the numbers look very different state to state, and the virus continues to spread across the U.S. So, how bad are COVID cases still in your state?
There are countless ways to measure the level of outbreak in any particular area. The experts at COVID Act Now use several categories to determine each state's level of vulnerability: the daily new case rate, positive test rate, infection rate, hospitalizations, and percentage of the population vaccinated. To keep things simple, we are focusing on theper 100,000 people, which is one of the most effective ways to capture the state of the COVID outbreak in a given area.
Instead, states' daily new case rates are marked orange for 10 to 24 cases per 100,000 people; red for 25 to 74 cases per 100,000 people; or dark red for 75 or more cases per 100,000 people. As of Feb. 11, a staggering 32 states are red and 17 more are dark red. Only one is orange. With every U.S. state at an elevated risk level, total containment remains a distant prospect. From fewest to most daily new coronavirus cases, here's how your state is faring.
