From 20 October 2023, COVID-19 datasets will no longer be updated. Detailed information is available in the fortnightly NSW Respiratory Surveillance Report: https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/Infectious/covid-19/Pages/reports.aspx. Latest national COVID-19 spread, vaccination and treatment metrics are available on the Australian Government Health website: https://www.health.gov.au/topics/covid-19/reporting?language=und COVID-19 cases by notification date and age range. Data is available from 29th of June 2021. The data is for confirmed COVID-19 cases only based on location of usual residence, not necessarily where the virus was contracted. 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. Age ranges have been combined to minimise these risks.

Latest national COVID-19 spread, vaccination and treatment metrics are available on the Australian Government Health website: https://www.health.gov.au/topics/covid-19/reporting?language=und COVID-19 cases by notification date and postcode, local health district, local government area and likely source of infection. This dataset has been discontinued from 19 November 2021. NSW Health now reports daily COVID-19 cases as a total of local and overseas cases. With quarantine-free international travel, overseas origin of cases can no longer be determined immediately, but will be included in the COVID-19 weekly surveillance reports. The NSW COVID-19 cases by location dataset will continue to be published. 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. Data reported at 8pm daily. Case counts reported by NSW Health for a particular notification date may vary over time due to ongoing investigations and the outcome of cases under review thus this dataset and any historical data contained within is subject to change on a daily basis. 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. The dataset was then treated to mitigate these risks, including suppressing and aggregating data.

The data is for people tested for COVID-19 and is based on location of residence reported at the time of the test. A surge in total number of tests performed on a particular day may occur as the test results are updated in batches and new laboratories gain testing capacity.

Refer to the latest COVID-19 news and updates for information on action advice provided by NSW Health. From Monday 15 November 2021, NSW Health will no longer list case locations that a COVID-19 positive person has attended. This is due to a number of reasons, including high vaccination rates in the community. If you are told to self-isolate by NSW Health or get tested for COVID-19 at any time you must follow this advice. This dataset provides COVID-19 case locations by date of known outbreak, location, address and action. This data is subject to change as further locations are identified. Locations are removed when 14 days have passed since the last known date that a confirmed case was associated with the location.
