Data Notes:
- Media requests received is a compiled list of documented requests we captured for interviews, data clarification, or general request for information from the media. Given the volume of requests during COVID-19, many exchanges with the media through text messages or quick phone calls to answer questions may not be captured. In many instances, each request led to multiple interactions with reporters.
- YouTube Live videos started on June 23, 2020. Prior Public Health Update videos on YouTube were exported videos recorded through Facebook Live. In July 2021, YouTube Live broadcasts were scaled down to Fridays only from a Monday, Wednesday, and Friday rotation. In September 2021, media briefings were increased to Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays and streamed live. On September 20, 2021, media briefings were recorded and then posted to YouTube.
- Website analytics are provided by Siteimprove. The metric provided is for page views to wechu.org. Previously, we were reporting on the local-updates webpage only.
- Email subscribers are those individuals who signed up to receive promotional emails from the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit. The analytics are provided through Mailchimp for last 30 days.
- Social media metrics are provided through Hootsuite.
- Media exposure information in this report were generated using Meltwater Media Monitoring Solution. News stories may be duplicates or missing as the platform is currently being optimized to better track Windsor-Essex County Health Unit mentions in the media landscape.
