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 Mississippi, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state does not update its data on weekends. Prior to April 24, 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
- Jan. 17, 2023 to Jan. 17, 2023:Mississippi did not update case or death data for much of January due to delays in data processing.
- 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.
- Jan. 31, 2022:Mississippi added many deaths from earlier in January after reviewing records.
- Jan. 17, 2022:Mississippi did not announce new cases and deaths for the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday.
- Dec. 31, 2021:Mississippi did not announce new cases and deaths for the New Year's holiday.
- Dec. 23, 2021 to Dec. 24, 2021:Mississippi did not announce new cases and deaths for the Christmas holiday.
- Nov. 25, 2021:Mississippi did not announce new cases and deaths for the Thanksgiving holiday.
- Nov. 11, 2021:Mississippi did not announce new data because of the Veterans Day holiday.
- Sept. 6, 2021:The daily count could be artificially low because many jurisdictions did not announce new data on Labor Day.
- May 18, 2021:Mississippi added about 400 cases from previous months.
- June 22, 2020:Mississippi reported several days of backlogged data at once after resolving a technical issue.
- June 11, 2020:Mississippi did not publish new 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.

About the data
In data for Mississippi, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state does not update its data on weekends. Prior to April 24, 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.
