Maine Overview
Current data completeness grade:
Key Metrics
New tests Total test results (Specimens)
New cases
Current hospitalizations
New deaths
We calculate daily changes based on the data states report each day. Some states report new cases, tests, and deaths using other methods. Please consult official state data sources for more information. We chart “New tests” using different units across jurisdictions, because not all states and territories report tests in the same units. Learn more about total test units and see what we chart for each jurisdiction in our total tests documentation.
We do not have a complete dataset for every metric in every state. If we have data for less than 30% of the past 90 days for a given metric, you’ll see a warning instead of a chart for that metric.
All the data for these charts is available for download. You can also review tabular national data on our US historical data page and data for each state and territory on the individual state or territory’s overview page.

Race & ethnicity data
We compute the number of cases and deaths per 100k people for each race and ethnicity.
These numbers show the scale of outcomes compared to the size of each group’s population. These are not the number of cases or deaths, rather the proportion of each demographic group who have been affected.
Race & ethnicity: cases per capita

Zooming into the state level, more than 10 states broke case records today: AK, AR, AZ, DE, IN, MA, ME, NJ, PA, RI, and VT. Note: AZ had a higher count on Dec. 1, but it was a data backlog.

Only 4 states—HI, ME, NH, VT—have fewer than 100 people per million hospitalized with COVID-19. South Dakota and Nebraska have the most people hospitalized per capita, with North Dakota, Illinois, and Indiana close behind.

Another 7 states — HI, ME, MT, NM, SD, UT, WY — are not reporting race / ethnicity for deaths. TX is reporting but >70% of cases and deaths are listed as unknown. Some data is better than none, but it's still not enough. See the rest of the data:

We were very happy to see Maine (@mepublichealth) add race and ethnicity data today. But there's a long way to go. Few states report comprehensively.

The other number that jumps off the page is New York's testing ramp. But it's actually 4th in per-capita testing behind Washington, Maine, and New Mexico.
