*This question is only asked of respondents who answered yes to Have you ever tested positive for COVID-19 (using a rapid point- of-care test, self-test, or laboratory test) or been told by a doctor or other health care provider that you have or had COVID-19?

PLEASE NOTE: Due to changes in the weighting methodology and other factors, results from 2023 are NOT comparable to 2010
and earlier years.

***The estimate was suppressed because it did not meet statistical reliability standards. See BRFSS 2023 Annual Results Technical Notes for more details.
