I think DHH should be posting more detailed information about the number of cases especially as the number of tests increase.

How many of these cases are serious and what level of status are some of these patients (ICU, Critical, stable)?

Are there any asymptomatic cases?

Are there any recovered cases (are they still in the reported cases category)?

Also any age demographic information they can release, such as number of cases in age groups and possibly if they had any underlying health conditions without violating HIPPA?

Unless you know the right person, no one will get tested if you are not showing all of the symptoms.

It took over a week for a friend of mine to get tested yesterday and he's been showing symptoms since March 6th.

You have to be retested after symptoms go away. I've read that it is nearly impossible to get retested just simply because of the number of tests and the number needing to be tested. So I don't think you'll see any "recoveries" in the statistics even though some are already recovered.

There are only 8 cases considered "recovered" in the US at this point

I wish they posted where the people are from and where they recently visited. That’s what s Korea has been doing

Someone at DHH must read this board because I just noticed that under the map there are 2 tabs that allow you to see Cases by age, and gender.

Still, a little more statistics should become more available as have more and more tests are administered.

I would still like to see the number of patients admitted to hospitals in numbers and people told to self-quarantine.

Also, maybe a number of tests administered and results pending.
