Description:As of March 30, 2024, we estimate that COVID-19 infections are growing or likely growing in 2 states and territories, declining or likely declining in 29 states and territories, and are stable or uncertain in 19 states and territories.
The second figure below shows the estimated time-varying reproductive number, Rt, and uncertainty interval from February 07, 2024 through March 30, 2024 for the U.S. and for each reported state and territory. (Click on the map to view the data for a specific state or territory). Estimated values above 1 indicate epidemic growth.
We estimate the time-varying reproductive number, Rt, a measure of transmission, based on data from incident COVID-19 hospitalizations. Epidemic status was determined by estimating the probability that Rt is greater than 1. While Rt tells us if the number of COVID-19 infections are likely growing or declining, it does not reflect the burden of COVID-19.
