+This table summarizes COVID-19 case and death data submitted to CDC as case reports for the line-level dataset. Case and death counts are stratified according to sex, age, and race and ethnicity at regional and national levels. Data for US territories are included in case and death counts, but not population counts. Weekly cumulative counts with five or fewer cases or deaths are not reported to protect confidentiality of patients. Records with unknown or missing sex, age, or race and ethnicity and of multiple, non-Hispanic race and ethnicity are included in case and death totals. COVID-19 case and death data are provisional and are subject to change. Visualization of COVID-19 case and death rate trends by demographic variables may be viewed on COVID Data Tracker (<a href="https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#demographicsovertime">https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#demographicsovertime</a>).
