This and subsequent information is pulled from github (https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/tree/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_time_series) and is said to be JHU CSSE data.

This page is summary data related to the Covid-19 pandemic and provides links to drill down into the details.

Note that Recovered is calculated by taking the number of Confirmed cases 30 days prior. Active is calculated by Confirmed - Recovered.

Hot spot information is the top 10 highest locations

The following is a list of the top 10 locations that have had their 7-day average increased over the last 3 days and appear to be accelerating. The first number is the acceleration, A, is determined by the location increasing by the formula

C₃> = A(D₃-D₀)₂ + C₀

• C₃ is the Count at the last date
• C₀ is the Count 3 days before the last date
• A is the acceleration displayed below
• D₃ is the Date of the last date
• D₀ is the Date 3 days before the last date

The second number in parenthesis is an attempt at normalizing the Least Square number used to find the acceleration and is calculated by

1 - (least squares) / (Y-C₀)²)

which is a measure of how well the data fits the function. Note that the closer the number is to 1.000 the better the data matches the function.
