NEW: The @uscensusbureau Household Pulse Survey has started asking Americans if they have been diagnosed with Covid. Here’s what these new data show…
First, almost 15% of respondents report a Covid diagnosis.pic.twitter.com/KxtPr2MVzk

Respondents with less education report much higher diagnosis rates than those with more.pic.twitter.com/QdiAEjgPgR
There is a steep gradient in diagnosis likelihood by household density, and those with children in the household are much more likely to report a diagnosis.pic.twitter.com/jGEppiMzYV
Some of this we have inferred from other sources, but it’s important that those conclusions line up with survey reports, and once the microdata are released, we can learn more.
The microdata are not yet available. So we don’t know, for example, if the difference between households with and without children is accounted for by other characteristics, like overall household size.
But these data make much new analysis possible. For example, are individuals who have had a diagnosis less likely to be employed? Have they suffered more income loss? We will know soon.
I’ve been advocating for this kind of question for a while, and it uses question wording from the @COVIDimpact survey. It’s important that this is finally out there in a large survey.https://twitter.com/AbigailWozniak/status/1350212107854360577?s=20 …
