Percentage of coronavirus (COVID-19) deaths compared to population among Indigenous Americans in select U.S. states as of June 23, 2020*
* "Includes data from the 10 states that have experienced 10 or more known deaths among Indigenous residents. The 16 states of Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, Utah, Virginia and Wyoming are also reporting Indigenous deaths, but have experienced fewer than 10 deaths each. However, their suppressed data is included in the "ALL KNOWN DEATHS" figure. "% of POPULATION" and "% of DEATHS" for ALL KNOWN DEATHS reflects only these 26 states. The remaining outstanding states are either not reporting Indigenous deaths (tallying them in "Other") or have experienced no Indigenous deaths. ALL KNOWN DEATHS is an undercount of Indigenous lives lost nationally due to the uneven data reporting across states, including the largest omission of New York. States employ varying methods for reporting race and ethnicity data. Population figures shown here align with method used by each state."
