How this list is built. A record is listed under a program when the filings of its case, taken together, name that program at least three times in their text and at least one-twentieth as often as the program they name most; documents from the same court docket are counted as one case. A case can appear under more than one program. Records whose case names no relief program are listed under Other pandemic litigation. The census is mechanical and is re-run with every build. Laws, regulations and agency guidance for the program are listed as well; they are dated only where the record page states a date.

Sources: the 210 record pages listed; court, dates and document types are as recorded on those pages.
