  • Updated description of resource COVID-19 cases by notification date and age range.csv in NSW COVID-19 cases by age range to

    COVID-19 cases by notification date and age range. Publication of some data in this dataset has been suppressed (before 9 March and after 24 April 2020) because the risk of gaining information about an individual in the dataset increases as the number of cases decreases. The data is for confirmed COVID-19 cases only based on location of usual residence, not necessarily where the virus was contracted. The case definition of a confirmed case is a person who tests positive to a validated specific SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test or has the virus identified by electron microscopy or viral culture, at a reference laboratory. The underlying dataset was assessed to measure the risk of identifying an individual and the level of sensitivity of the information gained if it was known that an individual was in the dataset. This dataset is no longer being updated every day. The reducing number of cases means there is an increased risk of gaining additional information if it was known an individual was in the dataset.
