Everyone wants to know when America could once again open up for business. To better understand factors influencing this decision, The White House Coronavirus Task Force presented a data-driven approach to state-by-state relaxation of public health measures. This includes downwards trending trajectories of influenza-like illnesses, COVID-19-like syndromic cases, diagnosed cases, and declining positive test percentage in the presence of a robust testing program for at-risk workers and vulnerable populations.

To give citizens, enterprises, and NGOs a view of progress towards meeting the quantitative gating criteria in every state, we created the Case Trajectory Status Visualization. This is a publicly available interactive data visualization that indicates the trajectory of cases as well as the trajectory of positive cases as a percent of total cases.

This is also available as a free-of-charge starter dashboard that can be integrated with your company's own data sets for deeper more company-specific analysis.

This dashboard uses up-to-date information from the Starschema COVID-19 data set, a public free-of-charge resource available on the Snowflake Data Marketplace. We will continue to integrate additional functionality in this dashboard and introduce complimentary dashboards, with the intent for it to be a source of situational awareness to help users assess how close states of their concern are to meeting the criteria for re-opening. This glimpse into when a state may be eligible for re-opening under the federal guidelines can inform decision-making on a wide range of issues — from managing supply chains to determining when employees may be ready to go back to work.
