  2. A surge in total number of tests performed on a particular day may occur as the test results are updated in batches and new laboratories gain testing capacity. Low test counts may also be due to a delay in importation or receipt of negative results from various laboratories.

The NSW confirmed case count for 10 April 2020 has been amended from 2857 to 2847 and total persons tested has been amended from 140,947 to 140,937.  These 10 exclusions were: 1 case which was a false positive result due to a data entry error, 1 case in the ACT who was tested in a NSW laboratory has been handed over to ACT Health, and 8 cases in QLD who were tested in NSW laboratories have been handed over to QLD Health.
