After a deeper exploration of the percentages I have been posting of individuals being tested and the percentage of those testing positive with COVID-19, I have decided to remove those statistics from the daily report. Unfortunately, the stats are very misleading. They do not, in any way, provide any application to the broader scope of the communities tracked. Not only does the number of individuals being tested vary widely from one community to the next, the mix of the individuals being tested also varies in terms of demographics and COVID-19 “exposure.”

Friday, January 1, 2021

Welcome to the New Year of 2021!

As you review the numbers today, please keep in mind that they are bouncing from state-to-state and from one day to the next. The actual daily counts should become more representative of the actual daily tracking next Tuesday or Wednesday, once the holidays are behind us.

Also, over the weekend, my groupings of several key states will be re-engineered to capture more relevant tracking sets. States like Iowa and Nebraska, with lower numbers, will no longer be tracked, while other states like Virginia, Louisiana and Washington will be built into the tracking mix.

As of 12:01 a.m. this morning:

The total number of tracked coronavirus cases accounts for 6.02 percent of the population
Tracked active COVID-19 cases represent 0.93 percent of the population
The number of COVID-19 survivors represents 5.00 percent of the population.

The 19,929,374 individuals in the U.S. that have been tracked with having contracted the coronavirus to date break down as follows:

Active cases — 15.9 percent or 3,085,819 cases, 15.9 percent yesterday
Deaths — 1.8 percent or 353,116 deaths, 1.8 percent yesterday (COVID-19 direct and indirect cause of death)
Survivors —82.3 percent or 16,490,439 individuals, 82.3 percent yesterday (based on 14-day U.S. universal recovery time)

Nationwide, in the past 24 hours:

Coronavirus cases increased by 228,413 in the past 24 hours
Survivors of COVID-19 increased by 249,137 — the highest number of recoveries posting in a 24-hour period!
Active COVID-19 cases decreased by 51,162 cases.
Deaths either directly or indirectly linked to COVID-19 increased by3,438 compared to 3,880 deaths posted yesterday
“Critical/serious” cases increased by 28,213 . The number of “critical/serious” cases represents 0.91 percent of the total active cases.

This is one of the highest levels of new active cases in the past 120 days, but it is difficult to evaluate any trend because of the delays and bouncing daily case counts over the holidays.
