The COVID Tracking Project
Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting and PRX, and ACKO Productions

The series addresses the crucial concerns the United States faces about why the nation had to rely on volunteerism, rather than federal and state public health institutions, to receive critical COVID data during the worst public health crisis in a century.
