* The number of tests represents the total number, including tests at the time of discharge. In particular, the “Number of persons who underwent an antigen test (sampling)(counted for each prefecture by public health institutes/public health centers and universities/medical facilities)” is added to the existing “Number of PCR tests performed(counted for each prefecture by public health institutes/public health centers, private inspection laboratories, and universities/medical facilities)” from March 21, 2022.
* The “Number of test-positive persons/Number of tests” is calculated mechanically with the “Number of tests (including tests at discharge)” as the denominator and the“Number of new positive cases” as the numerator. The results may exceed 100% due to the influence of delays in reporting the number of tests, so attention should be
paid to interpreting the results in other prefectures.

* Since “(1) Number of new cases of infection reported” is based on HER-SYS data, it is possible to limit the scope of notification of new coronavirus infection if notified by the prefectural government from after
September 2 to 26, 2022. Therefore, the number of infected patients reported on HER-SYS may be smaller than the number of infected patients disclosed by the prefectural government.
* The numbers per 100,000 of the population were calculated based on the population estimates as of October 1 of each year by the Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications up to
December 4, 2021, and the National population census in 2020 from December 5, 2021.
