Please note: There is no data available by canton or age group for the laboratory tests conducted before week 21. Rapid antigen tests have only been carried out since 02.11.2020.
The number of positive tests may be higher than the number of newly confirmed cases due to some people being tested more than once.

PCR tests detect the SARS-⁠CoV-⁠2 virus’s genetic material whereas rapid antigen tests detect specific proteins. Both tests are done with a nose and throat swab. The time frame desired can be selected with the slider below the graph.
