Laboratory-confirmed cases, 14-day normalised incidence
The graph shows the 14-day normalised incidence of laboratory confirmed cases in the selected period and geographic region.
What is the 14-day normalised incidence?
For data protection reasons, the time periods for the calculation of the incidence are adjusted to the size of the geographic region: the smaller the region, the bigger the time period. This way it is not possible to trace data back to individuals even in small regions.
Calculation
To enable regions to be compared despite this, the figures for all regions are normalised to a period of 14 days. The incidence for a specific time interval (e.g. 7 days) is calculated and divided by this figure (in this case 7). Then the figure calculated in this way is multiplied by 14 (days). All the normalised incidences are allotted to fixed ranges.
The colours in the diagram show the ranges for the 14-day normalised incidence.
