This dataset includes information on school reported COVID-19 testing and case positive data from the 2020-2021 academic year. Data was collected from K-12 public, private and charter schools and BOCES programs on each operational day using the daily school survey form, which school administrators accessed by logging in to the NYSDOH school survey website.

The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about disease spread and reporting of positive cases within schools.

This dataset reports the number of people vaccinated by New York providers with at least one dose and with a complete COVID-19 vaccination series overall since December 14, 2020. Currently, three COVID-19 vaccines have been authorized for emergency use by the FDA and approved by New York State's independent Clinical Advisory Task Force: one that was developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, a second that was developed by Moderna and a third that was developed by Janssen/Johnson & Johnson. New York providers include hospitals, mass vaccination sites operated by the State or local governments, pharmacies, and other providers registered with the state to serve as points of distribution. This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to the New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS) and the New York City Citywide Immunization Registry (NYC CIR).

NYSIIS and CIR are confidential, secure, web-based systems that collect and maintain immunization information in one consolidated record for persons of all ages in NYS governed by Public Health Law 2168. Health care providers are required, by law, to enter all vaccines administered to children up to age 19. Immunizations administered to adults 19 and older may be reported with consent. New York State Department of Health requires all New York State vaccination providers to report all COVID-19 vaccination administration data to NYSIIS and NYC CIR within 24 hours of administration.

Vaccination data by age is based on address data reported to NYSIIS and NYC CIR by the providers administering vaccines. Age is calculated by subtracting the dob from the date of vaccination. Note that COVID-19 vaccine availability greatly expanded for the different age groups over the period of time this dataset covers. This data does not include vaccine administered through Federal entities or performed outside of New York State to New York residents. NYSIIS and CIR data is used for age group statistics. This dataset is updated weekly.

This dataset includes information on school reported COVID-19 testing and case positive data from the 2021-2022 academic year. Data was collected from private schools on each operational day using the daily school survey form, which school administrators access by logging in to the NYSDOH school survey website.

The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about disease spread and reporting of positive cases within schools. The data will be updated daily, reflecting data submitted by school administrators the previous day.

This dataset includes information on all positive tests of individuals for COVID-19 infection performed in New York State beginning March 1, 2020, when the first case of COVID-19 was identified in the state. The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about local disease spread and COVID-19 case rates by age group. The data will be updated weekly, reflecting tests reported by 12:00 AM three days prior to the date of the update.

Total positives includes both PCR and antigen positive test results.

Note: This is an updated version of the statewide cases by age dataset that includes all reported cases, both first infections and reinfections. An archived version of the prior dataset, which includes only first infections, is available: https://health.data.ny.gov/d/h8ay-wryy

Note: Data elements were retired from HERDS on 10/6/23 and this dataset was archived.

This dataset includes weekly information about race/ethnicity categories and age groups of patients admitted for inpatient care to the hospital that are lab-confirmed COVID-19 positive.

Note: As of November 10, 2023, this dataset will be updated weekly on Friday afternoons.

This dataset reports daily on the number of people vaccinated by New York providers who have received a dose of the updated COVID-19 vaccine authorized on September 12, 2023. New York providers include hospitals, pharmacies, and other providers registered with the State to serve as points of distribution.

This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to the New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS). County-level vaccination data is based on data reported to NYSIIS by the providers administering vaccines. Residency is self-reported by the individual being vaccinated. This dataset includes limited data on vaccines administered through Federal entities (Veterans Health Administration) or performed outside of New York State to New York residents and will not be reflective of every dose administered to New York State residents in those settings. It does not include residents of New York City. NYSIIS data is used for county-level statistics.

These data represent a lower-bound estimate on updated COVID-19 vaccination totals. With the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency, COVID-19 vaccination records are no longer required to be submitted to NYSIIS for adults 19+. Reporting remains mandatory for children 18 and under.
