I am posting this information in the afternoon now (mostly). I try to do outdoor work in the cooler morning and indoor work in the afternoon.volvolugnut wrote: ↑17 Jul 2020, 12:37 More statistics on US states and COVID-19 growth rates. My raw information is from Worldometer. Any errors or misrepresentations are my own.
These tables show all available US states and territories and the COVID-19 data for the last 5 days. I have sorted the states alphabetically and added growth rates for last several days for all states with ranking of each day. Of course, this information changes daily. I have presented the table in two parts because of the screen shot, but it is actually one table in Excel.
Again, results change daily.
State growth rates for July 17, 2020. All information is based on reported information and actual results may be different.
For your information, the top 5 states or territories yesterday in growth rate (the worst containment) are: North Dakota (0.158) with 4792 cases, Minnesota (0.148) with 45,013 cases, Nevada (0.144) with 33,295 cases, Oklahoma (0.142) with 24,140 cases, and US Virgin Islands (0.114) with 263 cases. All states have reopened to various levels. Many states have now paused or reversed opening actions. US Virgin Islands has few cases. Oklahoma has been in top 5 list for 11 of last 16 days. Minnesota has been in top 5 list for 12 of last 17 days. North Dakota has been in top 5 list for 10 of last 16 days.
A column on the right shows the current growth rate divided by the 5 day moving average. Delaware, Maine, and Navajo Nation were over 2.0 yesterday (red highlight). Kansas, Missouri, Puerto Rico, South Dakota, and Us Military were over 1.5 yesterday (yellow highlight). This column is an early warning of increasing cases beyond day to day noise.
My calculated growth rate for USA is 0.0400 for yesterday, down slightly from previous day of 0.0401. This is not population or case number weighted. The US set a new record yesterday with 74,987 new cases.
