* The total number of infectious disease cases is the number of cases of infectious disease outbreak notifications received. Infectious disease outbreak reports are accepted at the public health center where the diagnostic medical institution is located, not at the patient's place of residence. Therefore, the number of reports does not match the number of patients in the city.
* Due to the limitation of new coronavirus infectious disease outbreak notification (review of all notification), after September 26, 2022, those who are subject to notification of outbreak notification ((1) 65 years old and over (2) The number of people requiring hospitalization (3) those who are at risk of becoming severe and who need new corona treatment drugs or oxygen administration (4) pregnant women) is counted.
*Regarding the number of reports per fixed point
Total number of reports ÷ number of fixed-point observation stations = number of reports per fixed-point (person/station).
This is the average number of reports per fixed point (medical institution), and is effective for grasping and comparing the epidemic situation.
