Correction in Active Cases Data of COVID-19 for the US States by Analytical study

The reported recovered cases for many US states are low which could be due to difficulties in keeping track of recoveries and resulted in higher numbers for the reported active cases than the actual numbers on the ground. These incorrect numbers can lead to misleading inferences. In this work, based on the typical range of recovery rate of COVID-19, we estimate the active data from the total cases and death cases and bring out a correction for the data for all the US states reported on worldometer.
