Our daily update is published. States reported 1.5 million tests, 151k cases, and 67k people currently hospitalized with COVID-19. The death toll was 1,104. Both case and hospitalization figures hit all-time highs today.

Cases nationwide are trending up more quickly than at any point in the pandemic. Today’s 7-day average—nearly 130k—is 54k more than two weeks ago, a growth of 71%.

Our data shows that one in every 378 US residents has tested positive for COVID-19 this week. The situation is particularly alarming in the Dakotas, where one in less than 100 people have tested positive.

The third wave of COVID-19 deaths in long-term care facilities is here. Since May, we have compiled all the data states provide on cases and deaths within these facilities, where a shocking 40% of the nation’s COVID-19 deaths have originated - that’s 91,596 deaths.

In October, 8.4% of long-term care facility residents diagnosed with COVID-19 died. The rising cases of the past few weeks are resulting in the highest number of deaths in months as states and facilities fail to protect these most vulnerable Americans.

South Dakota’s long-term care data last week painted a dire picture as 73% of deaths that occurred in the state were among long-term care residents. covidtracking.com/data/state/sou…
