COVID-19 Outcomes by Testing Cohorts: Cases, Hospitalizations, and Deaths
COVID-19 Outcomes by Testing Cohorts: Cases, Hospitalizations, and Deaths
The dataset shows outcomes (confirmed cases, hospitalizations, and deaths) for cohorts defined by each date of specimen collection (specimen_date).
For example, if a NYC resident tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and was subsequently hospitalized, both events would show under the same specimen_date, indicating the date of specimen collection for the positive test and not the date of the hospitalization.
