* Other states do not send death certificates to ODH’s Bureau of Vital Statistics on a regular schedule and therefore fluctuations will be reflected in reported mortality data. Deaths are assigned to their appropriate date of death.
** Case rates per 100,000 are updated weekly on Thursday.
The Ohio Public Health Advisory System launched in July 2020 to assess the degree of COVID-19 spread by county has been canceled, effective May 27.
