#1019: [IL] Remove values carried over after Illinois stopped reporting a Confirmed and Probable case breakdown on 11/6

Issue number 1019

jaclyde opened this issue on December 18, 2020, 4:40 PM PST

Labels Data quality not stale

Open in Github

State: Illinois

Issue: On November 6, 2020, Illinois announced that they "will report confirmed cases and probable cases combined" and no longer provide a breakdown on confirmed and probable cases separately. We carried over the last available values, but the breakdown has not returned, so the values are out of date and potentially confusing. We will be keeping the time series as provided by the state, but removing the carried over values from November 7th, 2020, forward.

#943: [IL] Mistake in Negative PCR tests (people)

Issue number 943

the-daniel-lin opened this issue on November 10, 2020, 9:56 AM PST

Labels Backfill Data quality

Open in Github

State or US: Illinois

Describe the problem On 11/6/20, Illinois stopped reporting their confirmed/probable cases breakdown. Since that day, Data Entry has been subtracting the lumped PCR/antigen positive number from the lumped PCR/antigen total tests number to calculated Negative PCR tests (people). On 11/9, the checker subtracted the un-updated confirmed number from 11/6 from the lumped total test number. We need to backfill the negative value for 11/9.

Describe the problem CTP didn't have a column for probables until 7/28 and we started a confirmed cases column on 4/29. IL didn't start separating out confirmed and probables until 6/8.

Action plan Calculate probables as positive - positive(PCR) from 6/9 to 7/28.

Note that our research found IL only started separating confirmed and probable in June. The bar chart now displayed by IL for historical cases (when hovering over each bar) is likely only confirmed, but we may need to check.

came here to post this.

I just contacted the state department of health -- they've updated the page. Do a hard refresh of the page if it's not showing updated numbers. I expect the covid tracking project's data will be updated withe the new figures whenever they run an update next.
