The new ArcGIS data platform (see Desktop, Mobile & Map Buttons below) improves the COVID-19 reporting process and minimizes any discrepancy between State and Orange County information by reporting same day information. The 6 a.m. State data are downloaded from CalREDIE each morning, checked to remove duplicates and/or out-of-county residents and then reported to our website by 5 p.m.

NOTES: The CalREDIE Electronic Laboratory Reporting system is experiencing issues with the application that receives test reports from laboratories and then sends them to CalREDIE. The California Department of Public Health is currently working to resolve the issue but may result in a lower number of Daily COVID Positive Cases Received and Tests Reported Today.
