Table published by the Connecticut Department of Public Health that contains reportable disease data. Each row of data represents a case of disease in a person reported as deceased.

Each case is assigned to a report period based on the date of death. The report period is identified by the Report Period Start Date and Report Period End Date. The actual date the death occurred is not included to protect confidentially.

All data are preliminary; data for previous weeks are routinely updated as new reports are received, duplicate records are removed, and data errors are corrected.

The following disease(s) are included in this table:

Influenza

Updated (Bivalent) COVID- 19 Vaccination by Age Group

As 4/22/2023, CDC recommends bivalent vaccine for everyone regardless of age and whether or not the person has had prior monovalent vaccine.

This table shows the cumulative number and percentage of people who have received an updated (bivalent) COVID-19 vaccine by age group .

• Data are reported weekly on Thursday and include doses administered to Saturday of the previous week.

• All data in this report are preliminary. Data for previous weeks may be changed because of delays in reporting, deduplication, or correction of errors.

• The table groups people based on their current age and excludes people known to be deceased.

• The analyses here are based on data reported to CT WiZ which is the immunization information system for CT. Connecticut COVID-19 Vaccine Program providers are required to report to CT WiZ all COVID-19 doses administered in CT including to CT residents and to residents of other jurisdictions. CT Wiz also receives records on CT residents vaccinated in other jurisdictions and by federal entities which share data with CT WiZ electronically (currently: RI, NJ, New York City, DE, Philadelphia, NV, Indian Health Service, Department of Veterans Affairs (doses administered since 11/2022)). Electronic data exchange is being added jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction. Once a jurisdiction is added to CT WiZ, the records for residents of that jurisdiction vaccinated in CT are removed. For example, when CT residents vaccinated in NYC were added, NYC residents vaccinated in CT were removed.

• Population size estimates used to calculate cumulative percentages are based on 2020 DPH provisional census estimates**.

• Cumulative percentage estimates have been capped at 100%. Observed percentages may be higher than 100% for multiple reasons, inaccuracies in the census denominators or reporting errors.

Table published by the Connecticut Department of Public Health that contains reportable disease data. Each row of data represents a case of disease in a person with their reported race/ethnicity.

People with more than one race are classified as two or more races. People with Hispanic ethnicity are classified as Hispanic regardless of reported race(s). People with a missing ethnicity are classified as non-Hispanic.

All data are preliminary; data for previous weeks are routinely updated as new reports are received, duplicate records are removed, and data errors are corrected.

Contact tracing is the process of contacting all people who have tested positive for COVID-19 or have had contact with someone who tested positive. The software for contact tracing in Connecticut is called ContaCT. ContaCT is used for monitoring the health and wellbeing of people affected by COVID-19 and assists in facilitating timely and accurate contact tracing.

This dataset includes metrics on COVID-19 cases in the ContaCT system and the contacts associated with those cases for each reporting period, including:

Total actionable community cases
Attempted interviews within 48 hours - cases
Successful interviews within 48 hours - cases
Total actionable community contacts
Attempted interviews within 48 hours - contacts
Successful interviews within 48 hours - contacts
Ratio of contacts:cases
Number of cases listing at least one contact
Median contacts reported
Range of contacts reported (min)
Range of contacts reported (max)

All data are preliminary and are subject to change.

Connecticut nursing homes are required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to report on the impact of COVID-19 on their residents and staff through CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). This reporting is intended to reflect recent COVID-19 activity in nursing homes.

Data presented here from NHSN reflect resident and staff COVID-19 cases and COVID-related deaths reported for Connecticut nursing homes for the previous week, Thursday–Wednesday. All nursing homes follow NHSN definitions and instructions when reporting to the NHSN COVID-19 module, ensuring data are reported in a systematic way. These data do not show where the resident or staff got infected.

Detailed information about COVID-19 reporting for nursing homes and NHSN can be found here: https://www.cdc.gov/nhsn/ltc/covid19/index.html

As of January 1, 2009, Connecticut law mandates that medical providers must conduct annual lead screening (i.e., blood lead testing) for each child 9 to 35 months of age. Furthermore, the law requires that any child between 36-72 months of age who has not been previously tested must also be tested by the child’s medical provider, regardless of risk.

This dataset includes various metrics about childhood lead screening in Connecticut, including:

Screening numbers and rates by birth cohort
Demographic characteristics (age, gender, race/ethnicity)
EBLL
Hazard by source
Paint vs non-paint hazard
Relative Risk -% Incidence
