*{{style color:red '''THE DATA IN THIS QUERY MODULE ARE NOT FINALIZED.'''}} All counts shown are subject to change and should only be used for public health surveillance purposes, not research. Some records may have invalid or out-of-range values that still need correction.
*The total death count for a given date is mostly complete about a week after that date. However, '''cause of death coding''' takes ''at least'' a week and sometimes longer than a month for some records, therefore the most recent deaths have blank causes of death.
*The module will be updated monthly. The date the dataset was last updated will show in the '''Query Date Time Stamp''' below the Data Table after a query is submitted.
*Some but not all deaths of NJ residents that occurred out of state are included.
*[https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/data/tables.html Vintage 2023 population estimates] are used in the rate calculations.
