Cuyahoga County - May 5, 2021

Effective Reproduction Number (Rt)

Rt appears to have stayed below 1.0 for the past 3-4 weeks.

 

Projected Incidence

Daily case counts are expected to decline in the coming 2 weeks.  Continued masking and social distancing will be critical to preventing large increases.

 

Asymptomatic to Symptomatic Ratio

The ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases appears to have declined gradually over the past 3-4 weeks.  A low ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases facilitates mitigation efforts since symptomatic individuals usually isolate.
