Updated 5.28.20: Mapping Cobb COVID-19 cases by ZIP Code

Cobb COVID Zip Code Map — *To hover over a larger map with more details, **click here**.*

Earlier this month the Cobb and Douglas Public Health Department began breaking down the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in each county by ZIP Code, as part of a rollout of more data about how the virus has spread.

That also came right before statewide lockdowns began to be lifted.

We posted about that on May 7, and thought we’d revisit those numbers as well as others across the state over the past three weeks.

With more testing taking place in Cobb and Georgia, public health officials have acknowledged that the number of positive tests would be going up. In three East Cobb ZIP Codes, the number of COVID-19 cases has surpassed triple figures, and another will soon reach that mark.

Here’s the ZIP Code breakdown for East Cobb areas as of Wednesday, with the May 7 numbers in parenthesis:

30062: 160 (113)
30067: 150 (93)
30066: 126 (95)
30068: 98 (68)
30075: 14 (11)

None of those figures, which come from the Georgia Department of Public Health, State Electronic Notifiable Disease Surveillance System (SENDSS), include the number of deaths by ZIP Code.

As of noon Thursday, there have been 45,070 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Georgia, and 1,962 deaths. A total of 523,359 tests have been conducted across the state.

That compares with 34,848 cases and 1,494 deaths on May 12.

In Cobb County, there are 2,924 confirmed cases of the virus and 164 deaths. On May 12, Cobb had 2,253 cases and 124 deaths.

The Georgia Department of Public Health updates those figures three times a day.

Cobb government has a COVID-19 dashboard using data from the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering.

Gov. Brian Kemp will be giving an update on the state’s response to the virus at 4 p.m. Thursday.
