    Metadata Updated: March 23, 2026

    This dataset includes three tables with the model-based projections and estimates as shown on CalCAT in 2025 (http://calcat.cdph.ca.gov) for California state, regions, and counties.

    (1) COVID-19 Nowcasts includes the R-effective estimates for COVID-19 from the different models available for the past 80 days from the archive date and the median ensemble thereof.

    (2) CalCAT Forecasts includes hospital census and admissions forecasts for COVID-19 and Influenza, and the corresponding ensemble metrics for a 4 week horizon from the archive date.

    (3) Variant Proportion Nowcasts contains the Integrated Genomic Epidemiology Dataset (IGED)-based and Terra-based estimates of COVID-19 variants circulating over the past 3 months as well as model-based predictions for the proportions of the variants of concern for dates leading up to the archive date. Prediction intervals are included when available.

    This dataset provides CalCAT users with programmatic access to the downloadable datasets on CalCAT.

    This dataset also includes a zipped file with the historical archives of the COVID-19 Nowcasts, CalCAT Forecasts and Variant Proportion Nowcasts through 2023.
