COVID-19 seven-day positivity rate in Connecticut

The positivity rate represents the proportion of confirmed positive COVID-19 tests relative to the total number of tests conducted. It is calculated by dividing the number of confirmed positive tests by the total number of tests.

By using a seven-day window, the positivity rate is smoothed to account for daily variations, providing a more stable measure of transmission trends over time.
