The information is based on cases notified both from the clinicians and the laboratories. An arbitrary case can be notified from either the clinician or the laboratory. It can also be notified from both instances, counted as one case.

All statistics are updated continually. Consequently early statistics may change with time.

Statistiken uppdateras den 8:e i varje månad med en månads fördröjning.

Occasionally the information regarding the country of origin [i] is missing. Often this is because there is only a laboratory notification [i] and the clinical details are missing.

In the table of the year and month statistics (open), detailed information per county is listed.
