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.
For your information, the top 5 states or territories yesterday in growth rate 7 day average (the worst containment) are: West Virginia (0.174) with 537,443 cases, Wyoming (0.149) with 165,619 cases, Guam (0.140) with 52,823 cases, Montana (0.128) with 289,345 cases, and US Virgin Islands (0.116) with 21,103 cases. West Virginia has been in the top 5 states for 216 of the last 307 days. Wyoming has been in the top 5 states for 12 of the last 12 days. Guam has been in the top 5 states for 114 of the last 186 days. Montana has been in the top 5 states for 123 of the last 202 days. US Virgin Islands has been in the top 5 states for 13 of the last 18 days.
Several states have stopped posting new case and new death numbers. I will back calculate where possible.
A column on the right shows the previous day growth rate divided by the 7 day moving average. Red highlight states were over 2.0 yesterday. Yellow highlight states were over 1.5 yesterday. This is an early warning of higher growth rate in states. Many of these states did not report the last several days making this measure more variable for those states.
My calculated growth rate for USA is 0.00684 for yesterday, down from previous day of 0.00886. This is not population or case number weighted. Yesterday, 52 states did not report new cases. It appears some states, particularly Wyoming, are deleting active cases from the count much earlier that others. These differences in the states reporting, makes the growth rate comparisons misleading.
Daily active case counts have started to rise in the last couple weeks. There have been 95 of last 160 days with decreasing active case numbers.
There have now been 90 million total cases of Covid-19 in the US. This is 27% of the total US population. Reinfections and under reporting will distort the total number of cases.
With new home tests widely available, new case counts are likely under counting the true number of active cases.
As the table has expanded, it has become harder to read. You may want to copy the image, paste to another screen. like Word, and increase the size.
