NC DHHS COVID-19 October 16, 2020

North Carolina -- NCDHHS -- On Oct. 16, 2020, the NCDHHS added new county-level case data to the NC COVID-19 Summary Dashboard.

Dashboard additions include: 1) a new feature that allows users to view county-level case data by various date ranges (Total cases and cases from Prior Day, Last 7 Days, and Last 14 Days) and 2) a newly available metric that displays Cases per 100,000 Residents to align with federal reporting metrics.

Knowing when to dial up or down measures that slow the spread of the virus depends on North Carolina’s testing, tracing and trends. This dashboard provides an overview on the metrics and capacities that the state is following.
