All data are 7-day averages or 7-day sums, calculated from Friday to Thursday and published on Mondays.
All bed data is for staffed beds. According to HHS, "The number of staffed beds in the facility is flexible and may change from day to day as the facility’s needs change."
Adult ICU Beds are a subset of Adult Beds
Unless otherwise specified on this page, Covid-19 patients include individuals with confirmed or suspected COVID-19. According to HHS, "The term “suspected” is defined as a person who is being managed as though he/she has COVID-19 because of signs and symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 as described by CDC’s Guidance but does not have a laboratory positive COVID-19 test result. This may include patients who have not been tested or those with pending test results. The count may also include patients with negative test results but whom continue to show signs/symptoms suggestive of COVID-19."
