Abstract:
As government and health officials evaluate preparedness for reducing community-level COVID-19 mitigation measures, one of the key "gating" indicators cited by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is the "downward trajectory (or near-zero incidence) of documented cases over a 14-day period." This data brief looks at the new case counts in every US county (n = 3,142) between May 3, 2020, and May 16, 2020, to quantitatively evaluate 14-day trends in metropolitan, nonmetropolitan, and noncore counties.
