Reported COVID-19 cases in Arizona were similar to last week's numbers and the percentage of tests returning positive for the virus declined.
Percent positivity, which refers to the percentage of COVID-19 diagnostic tests that are positive, varies somewhat based on how it's measured. It was high in the winter months, a sign of more community spread. Then it was much lower but began climbing upward in April.
The state's overall COVID-19 death and case rates since Jan. 21, 2020, still remain among the worst in the country. The state reported nearly 5.3 million people in Arizona — about 73.5% of the total state population — had received at least one vaccine dose through Aug. 20, with about 4.5 million residents fully vaccinated against COVID-19. The state’s data dashboard now separates out doses administered to Arizona residents versus all doses administered in the state.
