Within the past 24 hours, laboratories have reported
101,955 specimens for a total 8,571,019. As of last night, 4,742
people in Illinois were reported to be in the hospital with
COVID-19. Of those, 911 patients were in the ICU and 399 patients
with COVID-19 were on ventilators.
The preliminary seven-day statewide positivity for
cases as a percent of total test from November 3 – November 9 is
12.0%. This is the number that IDPH has been consistently reporting
in its daily releases and is calculated using total cases over total
tests. Similar to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
IDPH has been using test positivity for regional mitigation metrics
on its website since mid-July. Test positivity is calculated using
the number of COVID-19 positive tests over total tests. On October
29, 2020, IDPH began reporting the statewide test positivity in its
daily releases. The preliminary seven-day statewide test positivity
from November 3, 2020 – November 9, 2020 is 13.1%.
The Illinois Veterans’ Home LaSalle (IVHL) is reporting 3 new
resident deaths in the past 24 hours. Since the beginning of the
pandemic, 68 residents and 70 employees at IVHL have contracted
COVID-19, including six residents who have passed away. IVHL has
implemented testing, isolation, and sterilization protocols at the
facility and is following all public health guidance in its
continued response.
Case positivity and test positivity rate are both relevant and offer
insight into the bigger COVID-19 picture. Case positivity helps us
understand whether changes in the number of confirmed cases is due
to more testing or due to more infections. Whereas, test positivity
accounts for repeated testing and helps us understand how the virus
is spreading in the population over time.
Following Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance,
beginning November 6, 2020 and going forward, IDPH will report
confirmed cases and probable cases combined. A confirmed case is
laboratory confirmed via molecular test. A probable case meets
clinical criteria AND is epidemiologically linked or has a positive
antigen test. If a probable case is later confirmed, the case will
be deduplicated and will only be counted once. Probable deaths and
confirmed deaths will continue to be reported separately.
*All data are provisional and will change. In order to rapidly
report COVID-19 information to the public, data are being reported
in real-time. Information is constantly being entered into an
electronic system and the number of cases and deaths can change as
additional information is gathered. For health questions about
COVID-19, call the hotline at 1-800-889-3931 or email dph.sick@illinois.gov.
