Description
These data files contain information about COVID-19 testing rate and test positivity, by country and by region.
They are updated weekly.
The figures are based on multiple data sources. The main source is data submitted by Member States to the European Surveillance System (TESSy). When not available, ECDC compiles data from public online sources. EU/EEA Member States report in TESSy all tests performed (i.e. both PCR and antigen tests).
Disclaimer:
The data compiled from public online sources have been automatically or manually retrieved (‘web-scraped’) on a daily basis. It should be noted that there are limitations to this type of data including that definitions vary and the data collection process requires constant adaptation to avoid to interrupted time series (i.e. due to modification of website pages, types of data).
If you reuse or enrich this dataset, please share it with us.
