Data notes
New York City reports Deaths (probable) from COVID-19 that New York State does not include in its data reporting. Because we collect state data, not city or county data, these New York City probable deaths from COVID-19 are not included in our dataset. The total number of deaths from COVID-19 for New York State reported by the CDC is significantly larger than the total number of deaths from COVID-19 reported by New York State.
The Recovered data point we report for New York reflects the number of lab-confirmed COVID-19 patients discharged from the hospital and therefore does not represent the total number of people who have recovered from COVID-19, since many people with COVID are never hospitalized.
New York State has not reported new Ever hospitalized data since June 2, 2020.
As of November 23, 2020, New York's totalTestResults are drawn from our totalTestEncountersViral field instead of calculated via positive+negative.
