Appendix Table 1: Average Weekly Long-Term Care Deaths Per 100,000 State Residents, April 2020-April 2021

NOTE: Calculations for all states exclude the first week of reported data since the first week of data does not reflect a single week of deaths, but rather all deaths that have occurred up to that point. 12 states have not reported any trendable LTC death data, so they do not have associated data points & are included in the bottom of the table. See methods for more details. SOURCE: KFF analysis of state reports, state dashboards, press releases, press conferences, official state data from news reports, and the COVID Tracking Project. State population data is from 2019 US Census Bureau Estimates.
