The number of people tested. |
The Government of Croatia provides daily updates of confirmed cases, deaths, and testing figures [here](https://www.koronavirus.hr). We construct a time series based on the cumulative figures reported in [web archives of the latest koronavirus.hr press release](https://web.archive.org/web/20200706160835/https://www.koronavirus.hr/najnovije/ukupno-dosad-382-zarazene-osobe-u-hrvatskoj/35). It is unclear whether the reported figures include tests for which the results are pending.
Prior to 24 March 2020, testing figures were reported in terms of "samples tested" (e.g. "Ukupno je 317 testiranih uzoraka..."). From 24 March to 6 May 2020, testing figures were reported in terms of "tests performed" (e.g. "Dosad je obavljeno ukupno 3.159 testiranja"). Since 6 May 2020 they have been reported in terms of "people tested" (e.g. "Dosad je testirano ukupno 41.053 osoba"). It does not appear that this change in terminology reflects a substantive change in the figures that are reported, since there are no large breaks in the time series around these changes in terminology.
The source provides data for both the cumulative number of people tested to date and the number of people tested in the last 24 hours. The daily change in the cumulative number of people tested to date equals the number of people tested in the last 24 hours, suggesting that the cumulative total will repeatedly count people that have undergone more than one round of testing over the course of the pandemic. However no further details were found at either source.
We have found testing data dating back to 3 March 2020, at which point 247 samples had been tested to date.
Note that, due to the way the data is presented by the official source, the time series may be impacted by retrospective revisions made by the source – see our [FAQ here](https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus-testing#does-your-data-reflect-retrospective-updates-made-by-the-source). |
