Escambia County, Ala. is the low risk category, according to the Alabama Department of Public Health’s COVID-19 risk indicator dashboard.

This dashboard provides data and surveillance information about Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Alabama. Data used to produce this dashboard is from the Alabama NEDSS Base System (ALNBS), our disease reporting and surveillance system, and the Alabama Syndromic Surveillance System (AlaSyS).

Data posted on this dashboard are updated on Thursdays for data reported through the previous Saturday. Data are lagged to allow for completeness in reporting. These data can change as new information about cases is gathered or updated, which means the risk categories could change from red to green and back to red. All data are provisional and subject to change.

If a county is in a downward trajectory of 14 or more days (or has a rate of 10 or less over the previous two weeks), they will begin in the low risk category.
