The San Francisco Department of Public Health provides daily updates each morning. We will do the same.
The most recent numbers from the Health Department show 34 new cases, and no new deaths. Most of the new confirmed cases were from people who took a COVID-19 test last week. One previously confirmed case was also removed from the dataset, someone who was previously reported as taking a COVID-19 test on March 12.
Our data tracker is embedded below, or click here for a full-screen version. And, you can find all of our recent daily tracker stories here.
Producing all of this content keeps us busy and if you haven’t already, please support our efforts.
Please note:
The embedded data tracker below will continue to be updated daily after this post is published.
For the number of confirmed cases each day, our tracker is tracking the date on which the Health Department announced new confirmed cases, not the date which the department said those cases were confirmed on.
There is a discrepancy between the total number of positive test results reported by the city and the total daily number of confirmed cases. The discrepancy comes from a delay in fully investigating positive test results.
On the testing charts, the result date refers to the date the test was taken.
Also, there is also a discrepancy between the hospitalization data reported by the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) and the county hospital data reported by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). This is because SFDPH receives data from one additional hospital, San Francisco VA Health Care System, that is not required to report to CDPH. “SFDPH statistics will trend higher as long as this hospital has patients admitted as either COVID-19 positive or suspected COVID-19 positive.”
Not really relevant to this story but since you added photos from Mission High — that field is not a true football field and should not be referred to as such. It’s a soccer pitch. MHS can’t host (American) football games because that is 1/2 of the space required to play (American) football, much to the dismay of our Athletic dept. director, clearly. -MHS parent
Ginger: You’re absolutely right and I will fix the caption. It’s a shame Mission High’s very good team does not have a field.
