WELCOME
Understand the COVID-19 data that matters to you.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, we want to empower anyone in our country to easily explore and understand the data that’s relevant to them. Using the data set compiled by The New York Times, these four interactive dashboards can filter down to just the states, metropolitan areas, or counties that matter to you. Our goal is to help you understand your local data as it changes over time, and help you contextualize your current situation within the United States as a whole. We hope you find this information useful during these unprecedented times.
