Note for the use of some of some this variables by covidtracking authors:
States are currently reporting two fundamentally unlike statistics: current hospital/ICU admissions and cumulative hospitalizations/ICU admissions.
Across the country, this reporting is also sparse.
In short: it is impossible to assemble anything resembling the real statistics for hospitalizations,
ICU admissions, or ventilator usage across the United States. As a result, we will no longer provide
national-level summary hospitalizations, ICU admissions, or ventilator usage statistics on our site.
Value
a dataframe with 15 variables
