The data in this report is for the reporting period of March 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, was extracted from the Utah Department of Health databases on January 4, 2021, and represents four COVID-19 datasets: testing, positive cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. Testing Count of Tests Administered, by Day: This dataset represents the total number of tests that were conducted on persons residing within each legislative district. This information can be used to assess the volume of testing that occurred. The date is based on when the test was taken. This dataset includes multiple tests that were performed on the same person. Tests that returned an equivocal or otherwise inconclusive result are excluded. Positive Cases Count of Cases, by Week: This dataset represents the total number of positive COVID-19 cases confirmed of persons residing within each legislative district. The date is based on when the first positive test result was reported to public health. This dataset includes a person only once regardless of how many times that person tested positive. Case counts are also presented by age, race, ethnicity, and sex, within each legislative district. To help assess the numbers of cases within public schools, the age categories are modified to approximate the ages of children in elementary, middle, and high schools. Race groups are not mutually exclusive and do not sum to total. The definitions of the race groups are as follows: White means White alone or in combination with one or more other races Black/African means Black or African American alone or in combination with one or more American other races American Indian/ means American Indian and Alaska Native alone or in combination with one or Alaska Native more other races Asian means Asian alone or in combination with one or more other races Native Hawaiian/ means Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander alone or in combination with Pacific Islander one or more other races Some Other Race means Some Other Race alone or in combination with one or more other races Hospitalizations Count of Hospitalizations and ICU Visits, by Week: This dataset represents the total number of persons residing within each legislative district that are admitted to a hospital in Utah. This dataset also includes the number of the hospitalizations that were also admitted to the ICU (Intensive Care Unit). Deaths Count of Deaths, by Week: This dataset represents the total number of deaths of persons residing within each legislative district. Death counts are also presented by age groups. Geocoding To tabulate the data by legislative district requires each person’s home address be geocoded. We would like to thank the Utah Department of Health for geocoding the records and providing us the data by legislative district. As such, personal information remains private with the Utah Department of Health. Page 3 Geocoding is the process of converting each person’s home address to XY coordinates on a map. These coordinates are then used to assign each person’s record data to the respective House and Senate districts. Not all address data were able to be geocoded (and thus not included in the datasets) for the following two reasons: Insufficient address information: A record is determined to have insufficient address information if there is no address at all or if it has unusable text (e.g., “patient refused”, unknown”, or “no home address”). Poor quality address information: Sometimes, even when a record has sufficient address information, the geocoding process may return a poor-quality match (or no match at all). This is the case when the provided address does not exist. The following information for geocoding success results are presented below for testing, case, hospitalization, and mortality data: Testing Data • Total number of tests: 2,701,068 • Count with sufficient address information: 2,477,004 (91.7%) • Count of successfully geocoded records: • House: 2,429,962 (of all records: 90.0%; with sufficient address info: 98.1%) • Senate: 2,458,065 (of all records: 91.0%; with sufficient address info: 99.2%) Case Data • Total number of cases: 280,141 • Count with sufficient address information: 275,585 (98.4%) • Count of successfully geocoded records: • House: 271,002 (of all cases: 96.7%; with sufficient address info: 98.3%) • Senate: 272,592 (of all cases: 97.3%; with sufficient address info: 98.9%) Hospitalization Data • Total number of hospitalizations: 11,100 • Count with admission date: 9,904 Note: A total of 1,196 hospitalizations (10.8%) did not have a hospital admission date. Due to the time series nature of this data report, those hospitalizations are excluded from the data in this report. • Count with sufficient address information: 9,800 (98.9%) • Count of successfully geocoded records: • House: 9,683 (of all hospitalizations: 97.8%; with sufficient address info: 98.8%) • Senate: 9,731 (of all hospitalizations: 98.3%; with sufficient address info: 99.3%) Mortality Data • Total number of deaths: 1,292 • Count with sufficient address information: 1,264 (97.8%) • Count of successfully geocoded records: • House: 1,255 (of all deaths: 97.1%; with sufficient address info: 99.3%) • Senate: 1,262 (of all deaths: 97.7%; with sufficient address info: 99.8%) Page 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Cover Page .................................................................................................................................................................. i Membership of the Utah Senate ................................................................................................................................ ii Map Showing Location of Districts and Cities ........................................................................................................... iii Title Page ................................................................................................................................................................... 1 Data Notes ................................................................................................................................................................. 3 Table of Contents ....................................................................................................................................................... 5 1.
