# Data details

In this vignette, we provide more detailed information on the data included in `covidnor`, and demonstrate how to extract the data you need.

## Covid data outcomes

We have the following groups of Covid data, for certain combinations of time and location specifications.

There are two type of time granularity: day (`date`) and week (`isoyearweek`) in the data. For geo granularity, there are country (`nation`), county (`county`)and municipality (`municip`). Note that not all outcomes of interest have municipality level data.

Population data has been attached to compute number of cases per 100.000 population for a certain location.

In this dataset we only provide total age groups and sex groups.

### Cases

Cases are the PCR test confirmed Covid positive cases. We have the following variables:

- number of cases (counts, per 100.000 population) by the date of PCR test, `cases_by_testdate_n`, `cases_by_testdate_vs_pop_pr100000`
- number of cases (counts, per 100.000 population) by the date of registration, `cases_by_regdate_n`, `cases_by_regdate_vs_pop_pr100000`

Available for

- granularity_time: date, isoyearweek
- granularity_geo: nation, county, municip (only for registration date)

### Tests

Tests are the number of testing events. We have the following variables:

- number of testing events (all, positive, negative), `testevents_all_n`, `testevents_pos_n`, `testevents_neg_n`
- percentage of testing events that are positive, `testevents_pos_vs_all_pr100`

Available for

- granularity_time: date, isoyearweek
- granularity_geo: nation

### Hospital admission

We provide two variables related to hospital admissions:

- admission due to Covid as main cause, `hospital_admissions_main_cause_n`;
- ICU admission, `icu_admissions_n`.

Available for

- granularity_time: date, isoyearweek
- granularity_geo: nation

### Vaccination

For vaccination we provide data for two dates: vaccination date and registration date. We have data on 4 doses. For each dose, we have the following (e.g. dose 1):

- number of vaccinations delivered on the date, `vax_dose_1_by_vaxdate_n`
- number of vaccinations registered in SYSVAK, `vax_dose_1_by_regdate_n`
- cumulative number of vaccinations delivered by the date, `vax_dose_1_by_vaxdate_sum0_999999_n`

Available for

- granularity_time: date, isoyearweek
- granularity_geo: nation, county, municip (only for registration date)

## Subsetting data

Instead of working directly on `total` data, you might want to use a certain combination of time, location, outcome. We recommend using the data.table syntax for data filtering and subsetting.

The way we organize time and location codes is documented in more detail in another csverse package, cstidy. We highly recommend you read through this vignette!

### Based on `granularity_time` and `granularity_geo`

To get weekly Covid cases and hospital admissions as main cause for Norway (nation):

    # load total data (419k rows)
    totaldata <- covidnor::total_b2020

    # get weekly cases (confirmed) and hospitalisation for Norway
    case_hosp <- totaldata[granularity_time == 'isoyearweek' &
                         granularity_geo == 'nation',
                       .(date,
                         location_name,
                         cases = cases_by_testdate_n,
                         hospital_adm = hospital_admissions_main_cause_n)]
    case_hosp[1:6,]
    #>          date location_name cases hospital_adm
    #> 1: 2022-11-13         Norge   534           60
    #> 2: 2022-11-06         Norge   876          174
    #> 3: 2022-10-30         Norge   780          151
    #> 4: 2022-10-23         Norge   561          120
    #> 5: 2022-10-16         Norge   499          117
    #> 6: 2022-10-09         Norge   511          101

### Based on specific dates and locations

Get data for a certain date and location combination:

    totaldata[date == '2021-12-10' & location_code %in% c('county_nor03', 'county_nor15'),
              .(date, location_name,
                cases = cases_by_testdate_n,
                vax_1 = vax_dose_1_by_vaxdate_n,
                vaxcum1 = vax_dose_1_by_vaxdate_sum0_999999_n)]
    #>          date   location_name cases vax_1 vaxcum1
    #> 1: 2021-12-10            Oslo  1134   131  541045
    #> 2: 2021-12-10 Møre og Romsdal   105   103  210189

Can also get data for a whole calendar month, such as April 2022,

    totaldata[calyearmonth == '2022-M04' & location_code == 'county_nor03',
              .(date, location_name,
                cases = cases_by_testdate_n)]
    #>           date location_name cases
    #>  1: 2022-04-30          Oslo    35
