COVID-19 data

Due to a temporary technical issue that occurred yesterday, Feb. 9, with the Electronic Laboratory Reporting (ELR) system, today’s COVID-19 data dashboard will show incomplete case counts and there will be no update to testing and percent positivity. All other data remain unaffected. The issue with ELR has been fixed, but due to the large number of records still processing, data is not available for today’s update. The Feb. 11 dashboard will include a complete update.
