Queensland COVID-19 Pathology Test Totals by Collection Day and SA2

Brief description

An aggregate of Queensland's COVID-19 tests and persons tested by date of test collection and location of tested individuals usual residence (SA2 and HHS) since 01/06/2021 sourced from Queensland's Notifiable Conditions System (NoCS).

Tests counted include either utilise Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent (igG igM Reactive Serology) or suck-swab assays.

Please note that location variables are masked as null in instances when a case does not usually reside in Queensland. Furthermore, SA2 has not been generated on pathology tests prior to the June 2021 update of the Queensland's Notifiable Conditions System.

As at March 2023, the dataset incorporated the Queensland Public RAT Portal. Although this data has not been appropriately validated by Queensland pathology laboratories, the results were re-evaluated from within the Notifiable Conditions System (NoCS) and hence, any duplicates or other multiple entries for the same re-infection period have been appropriately integrated.
