Confirmed COVID-19 cases per 1000 and estimated SARS-CoV-2 infections per 1000 varied by US state and region. Map of confirmed COVID-19 case counts and the ratio of expected infections. Each panel displays colors defined by quintiles of the distribution of a confirmed COVID-19 cases per 1000 and b the ratio of the median of the distribution of estimated infections from the probabilistic bias analysis to confirmed COVID-19 cases. Analyses include cumulative confirmed COVID-19 case counts up to April 18, 2020. Estimated infections were from a using semi-Bayesian probabilistic bias analysis to correct for incomplete testing and imperfect test accuracy. Estimated SARS-CoV-2 infections include both symptomatic and asymptomatic infections. Quality of daily estimates of the number of tests performed varied by state; see Supplementary Table 3 for details.
