Massachusetts Department of Public Health COVID-19 Dashboard- Wednesday, September 02, 2020

September 2, 2020

An important note about today’s report:

On August 6, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists announced the release of an updated COVID-19 national case definition recently endorsed by CDC. Today’s
dashboard includes updated data which utilizes the new case definition.

The previous case definition defined probable cases as individuals: with a positive antigen or serology test AND symptoms or likely exposure; with COVID-19 listed as an
underlying or contributing cause of death on a death certificate; and with appropriate symptoms and likely exposure.

The criteria indicating likely exposure were very broad and included known contact with a case, contact with a likely case, travel to or residence in a location with COVID-19
transmission, or association with a specific outbreak.

The new case definition updates the clinical criteria associated with COVID-19; defines probable cases as individuals: with a positive antigen test, with COVID-19 listed as an
underlying or contributing cause of death on a death certificate, or with appropriate symptoms and likely exposure.

The criteria indicating likely exposure are now restricted to known contact with a case or association with a specific outbreak. Individuals with positive serology (antibody) tests
have been placed in a new suspect category which is not reportable to CDC.

In order to provide a single set of consistent data for tracking COVID-19 in Massachusetts, today’s data includes only probable cases identified through antigen testing or
death certificates. These criteria are the most objective and able to be applied over time. This definition has been used to update all of the data - including previously
reported data.

Many jurisdictions do not report probable cases at all. Those that do, tend to focus on antigen testing and death certificates. The change to our data improves comparability
with other jurisdictions reporting probable cases.

This does not change data on probable cases previously reported to CDC; however, the new case definition does apply to probable case reported to CDC from now on.

9/2/2020 Glossary

Massachusetts Department of Public Health COVID-19 Dashboard- Wednesday, September 02, 2020

Glossary of Terms
Please Note: the following terms and definitions apply to COVID-19 only.

COVID-19 Molecular Test: Also known as a PCR test. This diagnostic test identifies the presence of virus’s genetic material. These tests are very accurate and a positive result means someone has current or
very recent infection.

COVID-19 Antigen Test: This test identifies the presence of proteins on the surface of the virus. These diagnostic tests are somewhat less accurate (i.e., low sensitivity) than molecular tests but a positive result
is suggestive of current infection.

COVID-19 Antibody Test: Also known as a serology test. This test identifies antibodies; antibodies are the proteins produced by the immune system to fight off an infection. Because antibodies take days to
weeks to make after infection, a positive result indicates infection at some point in the past. It is not a diagnostic test.

Testing by Date: This refers to the date the sample (usually nasal swab or blood) was taken. Most reports and figures in this dashboard use this date.

Total Tests: This represents the total number of tests done and includes people who have had multiple tests.

Persons Tested: This represents the total number of persons who had at least one test done. If a person had more than one test, they are still counted only once.

Case Definition: A standard set of criteria (including symptoms, laboratory tests and exposure) used to count persons who may have COVID-19. Case definitions tell public health professionals which people
with disease to count; they don’t tell healthcare providers how to diagnose or treat COVID.
Confirmed Case: A person is counted as a confirmed case of COVID-19 if they have a positive molecular test.
Probable Case: A person is counted as a probable case in three ways:
1. if they have a positive antigen test;
2. if they have COVID symptoms AND were exposed to someone with COVID;
3. if they died and their death certificate lists COVID as a cause of death.

More complete information about the COVID-19 case definition may be found here: https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.cste.org/resource/resmgr/ps/positionstatement2020/Interim-20-ID-02_COVID-19.pdf

Suspected Hospitalized Cases : Patients without a laboratory confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis but who, as determined by the hospital, have signs and symptoms compatible with COVID-19 (most patients with
confirmed COVID-19 have developed fever and/or symptoms of acute respiratory illness, such as cough, shortness of breath, or myalgia/fatigue).

Massachusetts Department of Public Health COVID-19 Dashboard- Wednesday, September 02, 2020

Cases, Hospitalizations, & Deaths by Race/Ethnicity


The following caveats apply to these data:
1. Information on race and ethnicity is collected and reported by laboratories, healthcare providers and local boards of health and may or may not reflect self-report by the individual case.
2. If no information is provided by any reporter on a case’s race or ethnicity, DPH classifies it as missing.
3. A classification of unknown indicates the reporter did not know the race and ethnicity of the individual, the individual refused to provide information, or that the originating system does not capture the information.
4. Other indicates multiple races or that the originating system does not capture the information.
Note: COVID-19 testing is currently conducted by dozens of private labs, hospitals, and other partners and the Department of Public Health is working with these organizations and to improve data reporting by race
and ethnicity, to better understand where, and on whom, the burden of illness is falling so the Commonwealth can respond more effectively. On 4/8, the Commissioner of Public Health issued an Order related to
collecting complete demographic information for all confirmed and suspected COVID-19 patients.
