Reporting of home-based or point-of-care rapid antigen test results may not be complete or representative of case rates in the community. Probable cases can be used in conjunction with confirmed cases to track disease spread, but will be reported separately from confirmed cases to be consistent with CDC definitions.
The community is encouraged to continue reporting the results of their rapid tests at coronavirus.dc.gov/overthecounter
The District reported that two additional residents lost their lives due to COVID-19.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
