Dashboard additions include: 1) a new feature that allows users to view county-level case data by various date ranges (Total cases and cases from Prior Day, Last 7 Days, and Last 14 Days) and 2) a newly available metric that displays Cases per 100,000 Residents to align with federal reporting metrics.
