Daily Data for Covid-19 Explained
Where the data comes from and how the numbers are calculated
Total Tested for COVID-19
Sum of Pending, Positive, and Negative Results
Pending Test Results
CHS reports these numbers based on samples collected. This # may span across several days. Samples are sent to several labs.
Positive Test Results
Cayuga Health System (CHS) reports positive test results to the Tompkins County Health Department (TCHD). TCHD cross-references with a secure State system. TCHD nurses follow-up with any individual who has a positive test result and conducts contact investigation. This is a cumulative number, including active cases and those who recovered.
Negative Test Results
CHS reports negative test results to TCHD. CH team follow-up with any individual who has a negative test result.
Recovered
TCHD nurses report this number based on individuals who tested positive, have resolved symptoms, and are released from isolation. This number includes individuals who were initially hospitalized for COVID, have at least two consecutive negative results for COVID, yet remain hospitalized for other reasons.
Active COVID-19 Hospitalizations
CHS reports all COVID-related hospitalizations daily to TCHD. Individuals who have at least two consecutive negative results for COVID are no longer considered as COVID-related hospitalizations, and therefore not included in this number.
Discharged Today
CHS reports the # of COVID-related discharges daily to TCHD. This includes discharge of individuals who were admitted as a COVID-related hospitalization, and are discharged upon having at least two consecutive negative results for COVID. This number does not include individuals who remain hospitalized for non-COVID related reasons.
Total TC Resident Deaths & Total Non-Resident Deaths
The Medical Examiner reports this information to TCHD.
