    ReOpen DC New Cases

    Metadata Updated: February 5, 2025

    As the outbreak is brought under control and there is a high level of contact tracing capacity, most new positive cases should stem from individuals who we have already identified as close contacts of other positive cases and have quarantined, allowing transmission to be effectively reduced. A new case from a quarantined contact is defined as a positive case who was previously a quarantined contact. A quarantined contact is defined as a close contact of a positive case who has been successfully reached by a contact tracer. Contact tracing includes an interview with the initial positive case to collect basic information, identify close contacts, and provide resources and instructions for isolation. Close contacts of positive cases are interviewed to provide instructions for quarantine and gather more information about potential exposure. An individual can be a close contact of multiple positive cases. This data is used to calculate the Reopening DC metric for percent of new cases from quarantined contacts is above 60%. Data are subject to change on a daily basis and reported at a 4-day lag for proper analysis.Data is updated Monday-Friday.
