If youâre wondering what the community level of COVID-19 is in your area, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has an updated map that makes the latest data easy to see. The U.S. COVID-19 Community Levels by County map covers all U.S. States and territories and breaks down the level of spread on a per-county basis.
Under the CDCâs newest frameworkâannounced on Fridayâthe COVID-19 community level is determined by looking at the total number of COVID-19 cases in the area as well as hospital admissions and hospital bed occupancy. The interactive map lets you click on any state to see all its counties. You can then click on any county to see its COVID-19 community level. Additionally, the page has a dropdown menu that lets you select your state and county to quickly see your community level as well as a list of precautions you should take.
