About the Respiratory Virus Dashboard
The Choctaw Nation Public Health Respiratory Virus Dashboard reflects the current positivity rates of common respiratory viruses among Choctaw Nation Health Services Authority (CNHSA) patients living within Choctaw Nation. This dashboard updates on a weekly basis each Sunday, reflecting the current respiratory virus situation across the Choctaw Nation Reservation. All data reflected in this dashboard is obtained through Choctaw Nation Public Health Disease Surveillance.
Percent Positivity is the number of positive tests divided among the overall number of tests performed for the specific virus. Choctaw Nation Public Health considers a positivity rate over 10% to be widespread, meaning that the virus is actively spreading throughout the community and individuals should take appropriate precautions. Percent positivity is based upon the number of respiratory virus tests performed within CNHSA healthcare facilities in the week prior.
