Community data

As COVID-19 continues to be present in our local communities, across the country and around the world, there are both state and national data resources that track and evaluate COVID-19 transmission at a local level. Use these data sources to understand the spread of COVID-19 in your area.

CDC’s COVID-19 County Check

This tool on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s site allows individuals to search for community transmission levels in their home community. Search by state and county to view a map that indicates either a low, medium or high community level for your county. Levels are based on hospital beds being used, hospital admissions and the total number of new COVID-19 cases in an area. The site also provides recommended precautions to lower risk given the level of community spread.

State of Indiana COVID-19 data dashboards

The State of Indiana provides five dashboards to help individuals view and understand the current status of COVID-19 in Indiana. 

  • Home dashboard: this primary dashboard allows users to see the 7-day average of COVID-19 cases reported, deaths attributable to COVID-19 and the number of tests administered. This dashboard is updated by 5 p.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
  • Vaccination dashboard: this page shares information on the number of COVID-19 vaccine doses administered as well as data on breakthrough cases of the virus. This dashboard is updated by 5 p.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
  • Youth dashboard: this dashboard collates case, reinfection, death, testing and vaccine data for Indiana residents ages 0 to 19. This dashboard is updated by 5 p.m. each Friday.
