Over the weekend from 01/07/2022 to 01/09/2022 Appleton recorded 692 confirmed coronavirus cases and 228 probable cases. Active cases rose by 39 to 198 and cases out of isolation rose by 881 to16,604. Deaths remained unchanged at 78.
The 7-day running average of confirmed cases this year is approximately 125 points higher than on this day last year and the 7-day running average of confirmed and probable cases combined is around 180 points higher than on this day last year. Active cases, on the other hand, remain very low compared to last year–198 as compared to 771. Deaths also remain very low. Last year between March 18 (the day of Appleton’s first recorded case) and January 9 Appleton recorded 52 cases as compared to only 15 such deaths during that same timeframe this year. Also of interest is the fact that the death rate of known cases is much lower this year at this time than last year. Last year it was 0.78% by this point, but this year when we take deaths as compared to cases between March 18 to January 9, that death rate has dropped to 0.17%.
Last week Appleton recorded a total of 1,188 confirmed cases and 478 probable cases. Last week we had 504 confirmed cases and 226 probable cases. That makes our 2 week burden per 100,000 cases work out to 2,256 when using only confirmed cases and 3,195 when including probably cases in that calculation. Both of those are in the “critically high” category.
Since the beginning of the pandemic a total of 22.51% of Appleton’s residents have had a known case of coronavirus. 0.26% currently have an active case. 0.1% have died with/from coronavirus. 77.49% of residents are not known to have had had coronavirus yet.
