❗️❗️ MAJOR UPDATE ❗️❗️ 9-APRIL-21 1/10

The COVKID Project has revamped our data dashboards.

This is what you will see on our landing page: daily average incidence rate (DIR) on the left, and cumulative incidence rate (CIR) on the right.

Yes, #COVID19 is ⬆️ in USA kids.
9-APRIL-21 UPDATE 2/10

In the 5 days from 4-APRIL to 9-APRIL, there were an average of 13,734 new child/teen #COVID19 cases reported every day.

9-APRIL-21 UPDATE 3/10

We now display daily #COVID19 incidence rates for kids in every state. State data are organized in regional dashboards.

In #NewEngland, #RhodeIsland has the highest CIR, but #Massachusetts kids are suffering the highest DIR.

9-APRIL-21 UPDATE 4/10

#COVID19 hospitalization data for kids are temporarily offline. We will be updating with new metrics soon.

We were saddened to learn that @vps_llc will no longer update its excellent COVID-19 dashboard of child pediatric intensive care data.

9-APRIL-21 UPDATE 6/10

#GreatLakes region - #Michigan kids are suffering the worst surge in #COVID19, but #Illinois, #Wisconsin, #Ohio are ⬆️too.

9-APRIL-2021 UPDATE 8/10

Last week the highest #COVID19 DIRs were in #NewEngland, the #Mideast, and #GreatLakes states. If #VariantsOfConcern are the reason, we should expect new surges among young people in the South and West in coming weeks.

9-APRIL-21 UPDATE 9/10

Our dashboards will be updated with new #COVID19 data for kids every FRIDAY.

These data come directly from every state health department. We are grateful for the tremendous efforts of frontline #publichealth workers.
