Laboratory-⁠confirmed hospitalisations

The published data is based on information submitted by hospitals. It refers to the new reports we received and reviewed. The figures might therefore deviate from those communicated by the cantons. For hospitalisations, the date of admission to the hospital is decisive. The time frame desired can be selected with the slider below the graph.

Development over time by reason for admission to hospital

Laboratory-⁠confirmed hospitalisations, Zurich, 24.02.2020 to 19.11.2023

The graph shows the development of the number of all hospitalisations with laboratory-⁠confirmed SARS-⁠CoV-⁠2 infection by the reason specified for admission to hospital. Since April 2020, this has been recorded by doctors in hospitals’ clinical notifications upon hospital admission and/or in the event of a positive test result. The notifications are always a snapshot.
Patients with a laboratory-⁠confirmed SARS-⁠CoV-⁠2 infection put an additional strain on hospitals because their infection status requires special hygiene and isolation measures. Even if COVID-⁠19 was not the primary reason for hospitalisation, a connection with COVID-⁠19 cannot be ruled out. What is more, patients may be admitted to hospital for another primary reason and develop complications on the basis of COVID-⁠19 in the course of their stay in hospital.

Reason specified for admission to hospital
«COVID-⁠19»: Patients for whom the primary reason for admission to hospital was COVID-⁠19.
«Others»: Patients for whom COVID-⁠19 was not the determining factor for admission to hospital.
«Unknown»: Patients for whom the reason for admission to hospital is unknown.

Hospitalisation data should be interpreted with caution due to under-⁠reporting and reporting delays.
