Because of the holidays, we may see more daily case count fluctuations. So, the 14-day average offers the most accurate look at current COVID-19 disease burden in Pierce County.

We reported 3,672 cases in the last 14 days. Our average cases per day over the last 14 days is 262.3. Our totals are 26,515 cases and 307 deaths. Our 14-day case rate per 100,000 is 407.1.

With the 6-day data lag, our case rate is at 366.69 per 100,000. The data lag helps to ensure accuracy of our metrics.
