Positivity (%) is the proportion of all positive test results delivered out of all tests collected in the Bryan-College Station area. Tests (including students, faculty, staff and Texas A&M University contracted staff) are processed by Texas A&M University Student Health Services (SHS), the Texas A&M University Global Health Research Complex (GHRC), CHI-St. Joseph and Curative, Inc. Data are summarized weekly, and the weekly positivity (%) is the proportion of positive test results delivered out of the total number of COVID-19 tests performed for Texas A&M University affiliated individuals by these entities for that week. Numbers may change as additional test results become available from all testing sites.
Weeks marked with (*) include mandatory or targeted testing programs. Total numbers of tests will be higher during these weeks and positivity rate is expected to be lower due to a large number of asymptomatic individuals being tested.
