The number of tests performed. |
The Government of El Salvador publishes an online dashboard that reports the cumulative number of tests performed to date ("pruebas COVID19 realizadas hasta hoy").
The official dashboard only provides a snapshot of the cumulative number of tests performed as of today, making it difficult to construct a historical time series. We construct a daily time series dating back to 10 April 2020 using the figures reported in [this unofficial dashboard](https://covid-19-gis-hub-el-salvador-esri-sv.hub.arcgis.com/), supplemented by figures reported on President Nayib Bukele's [official Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/nayibbukele). We have cross-checked a sample of unofficial figures against figures reported on the President's Facebook page.
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). |
