About the Data

Data for this report come from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). We update this page weekly based on county-level reports from the CDC over a seven day period. The CDC tracks vaccination numbers, weekly deaths and infections, and cumulative deaths, among other things.

Cases are much likely undercounts since the CDC does not report on infections detected through home testing.

We use the rural classification from the Office of Budget and Management, which defines rural as counties not within a Metropolitan Statistical Area (OMB, 2013). Population data are from the 2020 United States census at the county geography.

The LATEST Study: Rural Covid Mortality Influenced by Isolation, Demographics Remoteness, once considered a protection from the fast-spreading pandemic, proved a double edged sword. With less services and older and sicker populations, insulated rural communities experienced higher mortality rates than their urban counterparts.
