Arizona health officials for the first time released coronavirus data by ZIP code on Sunday. The data showed hot spots of infections near Indian reservations, especially around Page, along with large numbers of cases in Scottsdale and Tucson.

Yet the state excluded much of the information needed to identify locations of outbreaks in the state.
The state Department of Health Services published its data as a map, showing a number of cases for each ZIP code. ZIP codes with more than 10 cases gave a specific number. Those with fewer gave ranges: "0," "1-5" or "6-10."

It shows that there are 0 cases in 86336 (Sedona), but Yavapai County, which has been forthcoming with info, says that there are 10 cases in Sedona.

Also, it shows 86336 as also encompassing a number of what I know are other zip codes. As the article says, "The state's map also showed some ZIP codes with erroneous numbers and appeared not to include a number of ZIP codes that exist in Arizona." True that.
