    I posted these links in the China thread, but figured I'd put them here, too. I didn't realize that both CDC maps had been this de-emphasized - the main page only tells you the Community Level one...

    I posted these links in the China thread, but figured I'd put them here, too. I didn't realize that both CDC maps had been this de-emphasized - the main page only tells you the Community Level one county at time (and of course no Transmission Level at all).

    As of today (December 2, 2022), the CDC map links are:

    • Original Transmission Levels - based on percent positive and case rates, which are related to how likely you'll encounter someone who has COVID when in public.
    • Newer Community Levels - also includes hospitalizations and other metrics, which often results in a lower level than the original.

    They're on the same page; there's a drop down you can use to pick between them and other metrics, if the specific links don't work.
