Specimens from YT, NT and NU are sent to reference laboratories in other provinces and reported results reflect specimens identified as originating from YT, NT or NU.
Delays in the reporting of data may cause data to change retrospectively.
Due to reporting delays, the sum of weekly report totals do not add up to cumulative totals.
