Topic Collection: COVID-19 Information and Peer-Reviewed Resources

GeoHEALTH is ASPR's secure Geographic Information System (GIS) based, electronic, interactive mapping application. This application incorporates information from other federal and public agencies (e.g., NOAA, USGS and NGOs) into a single visual environment for enhanced situational awareness, assessment, and management of resources for planning, response to natural, man-made or pandemic events. This system supports functions such as policy analysis, planning, course of action comparison, incident management, and training.

This page includes links to various CDC data products, including COVIDView (weekly surveillance summary of U.S. COVID-19 activity), COVID Data Tracker (total number of U.S. cases and deaths, cases and deaths by county, social impact, school closures), Patient Impact and Hospital Capacity Pathway (number of facilities reporting by state, percent of inpatient beds occupied, percent of intensive care unit beds occupied), and COVID-NET (laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 associated hospitalizations).

This interactive map of real-time COVID-19 indicators displays intensity of activity and seven-day trends at the state, metropolitan area, and county levels. Indicators are based on data from doctor visits, self-reported symptom surveys by Facebook and Google, Google searches on COVID-19 topics, and requests for influenza testing reported by Quidel.

This page features graphics and interactives with accompanying analysis related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Visualizations include: interactive maps (urban and rural differences in hospital bed capacity, Medicaid emergency authorities by state, number of ICU beds by county, confirmed cases and deaths, cases and deaths by race and ethnicity, adults at higher risk of serious illness if infected), charts and infographics (long-term care workforce characteristics, potential inpatient COVID-19 treatment costs, nursing facility indicators, state policy actions, telehealth for older adults), and polling and survey data.
