The COVID-19 pandemic has spread rapidly across California. Experts say the true number of people infected is unknown and likely much higher than official tallies.
To better understand the spread of the virus, The Times is conducting an independent, continual survey of dozens of local health agencies across the state.
What we know
Officials point to positive signs. State and local officials see signs of hope in the recent drops in new cases and hospitalizations.
The death toll keeps climbing. The state has averaged 67.4 deaths per day over the last seven days.
Fewer tests are coming back positive. The statewide positivity rate has decreased to 2.6%.
Most of the state is still on lockdown. The governor’s new system rates 16 counties as too risky to reopen. Together they're home to 40% of the population.
Disparities in age and race persist. Roughly 74% of the dead were 65 or older. After adjusting for population, Latinos are now 3.4 times more likely than whites to test positive.

The latest totals
Coronavirus can infect people so rapidly that it has continued to spread despite shutdown orders aimed at slowing the growth of new cases and flattening the line below.
The number of cases in California is now on pace to double every 179.9 days, a number used to measure how quickly the virus is spreading.

Times survey of county and local health departments
Local governments announce new cases and deaths each day, though bottlenecks in bureaucracy can introduce delays. For instance, some agencies do not report new totals on holidays and weekends, leading to lower numbers on those days.
Over the past week, the state has averaged 3,183 new cases and 67.4 new deaths per day.

The lines above are seven-day averages. They offer a more stable view of the trend than daily totals. The gray range marks when errors in a state computer system delayed the tabulation of new cases.
Where new cases are concentrated
State officials study the latest data and then rate counties to determine when and how businesses reopen. After adjusting for population, the virus is now categorized as widespread in 16 counties, keeping those areas largely locked down. Together they are home to 40% of California residents.
The government doesn't release enough data to replicate its analysis, but the rate of new cases over the last seven days provides some insight into where the virus is spreading.

Hospitals and patients
Lockdown measures aim to slow the virus in hope of preventing hospitals from being overrun. To keep tabs on capacity, officials watch out for rapid increases in the number of patients.
There are now 2,344 hospital patients statewide with a confirmed case, a change of -11% from two weeks ago.

State and county totals come from a ongoing Times survey of California's 58 county health agencies as well as the three run by cities. Those figures are ahead of the totals periodically released by the state's Department of Public Health. State officials acknowledge that their tallies lag behind the updates posted by local agencies throughout the day and do not dispute The Times' method.
Data on hospitalizations, tests, demographics and reopening plans come from California's Department of Public Health.
Nursing home totals include skilled-nursing facilities tracked by the state public health department, as well as assisted-living facilities monitored by the California Department of Social Services.
Data from other states, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico are collected by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering.
The Times database is available to the public on Github, a popular website for hosting data and computer code. The files will be updated daily at github.com/datadesk/california-coronavirus-data.
Learn more about The Times count by reading this list of frequently asked questions or by reading this interview with members of our team.

Change log
Oct. 4 County pages now include charts plotting how each area stacks up against the state’s reopening benchmarks.
Oct. 1 City-level totals added for Shasta County.
Sept. 27 Totals for skilled-nursing facilities are now drawn from the state's open data portal, which is promoted as the most comprehensive and up-to-date source.
Sept. 26 The hotspots section now offers a ranking of counties by deaths per 100,000 residents over the last seven days.
Sept. 22 Nursing home lists moved to a new page focused on skilled-nursing and assisted-living facilities.
Sept. 13 The logarithmic curves plotting the rate of growth in each state were replaced. Instead, stacked-bar charts compare California's case and death counts against the rest of the nation.
Sept. 12 The county map is now exclusively focused on cumulative totals and starts off by displaying grand totals per 100,000 residents.
Sept. 11 The logarithmic curves plotting the rate of growth in each county were replaced. Instead, after adjusting for population, counties are now ranked by the number new cases announced in the past week.
