- To calculate the 14 day rolling average percent positive, the total number of positive tests are divided by the total number of tests (positive and negative). An average is then created using the past 14 days of averages.
- This number may not match the percent positive in the COVID-19 Metrics because the percent positive for the metrics is calculated for the most recent complete week.
