Canceled tests are those tests that a healthcare provider decided not to submit after other diagnostic procedures confirmed a different illness, a clinical decision was made not to test after a referral was already assigned, or a patient declined testing after a referral had been assigned. Most canceled tests were done early on in the process but may continue as guidance and processes change.

Deaths are also included in the number of positive tests. They are not additional positives.
