About this data
The map shows the average I.C.U. occupancy at nearby hospitals in the most recent week with data reported. The data is self-reported to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services by individual hospitals. It excludes counts from hospitals operated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the Indian Health Service. Numbers for hospitalized patients are based on inpatient beds and include I.C.U. beds. Hospitalized Covid-19 patients include both confirmed and suspected Covid-19 patients.Vaccinations

How to read Covid data now
Higher test positivity rates are a sign that many infections are not reported — even if they are tested for at home. This results in a more severe undercount of cases. The number of hospitalized patients with Covid is a more reliable measure because testing is more consistent in hospitals. Read more about the data.

About the data
In data for Oklahoma, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state releases new county data once a week. Prior to March 2021, it released new data daily. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
More about reporting anomalies or changes
- March 23, 2023:Oklahoma added many cases in some counties and removed many cases in other counties.
- Dec. 1, 2022:Oklahoma added many older cases and deaths after reconciling records for 2022.
- Nov. 11, 2022:The Times began including death certificate data reconciled by the C.D.C., resulting in a one-day increase in total deaths.
- March 9, 2022:Oklahoma did not update county data during a transition to a new weekly schedule.
- Nov. 25, 2021:Oklahoma did not announce new cases and deaths for the Thanksgiving holiday.
- Nov. 4, 2021 to Dec. 3, 2021:Oklahoma deaths data was unavailable during November 2021 while the state transitioned its data reporting format. All deaths announced during this period are included on Dec. 3
- Oct. 20, 2021:Oklahoma reported 1,053 additional backlogged deaths after reconciling records from 2020.
- Sept. 6, 2021:The daily count could be artificially low because many jurisdictions did not announce new data on Labor Day.
- May 26, 2021:Oklahoma added 373 deaths after reconciling records.
- April 7, 2021:Oklahoma added about 1,800 deaths from previous months after reconciling records.
- March 9, 2021:Oklahoma began reporting deaths once a week rather than daily.
- Jan. 3, 2021:Oklahoma reported data for two days after reporting no data on New Year's Day.
- Nov. 28, 2020:Oklahoma reported data for two days after reporting no data on Thanksgiving.
- Sept. 8, 2020:Oklahoma began reporting probable cases identified through antigen testing since Sept. 1.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test. Probable cases and deaths count individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses an adjustment method to vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

About the data
In data for Oklahoma, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state releases new county data once a week. Prior to March 2021, it released new data daily. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.

The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test. Probable cases and deaths count individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses an adjustment method to vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.
