How is this data produced?
Building on the base dataset, this dataset tabules new COVID-19 cases by age either based on the individual's IC number (for Malaysians with an IC number) or based on the age declared in the COVID-19 test result declaration (for cases without an IC number or non-Malaysians).
What caveats I should bear in mind when using this data?
In a small minority (~1.5%) of cases, no age was declared or able to be derived. As such, the total number of cases derived from summing the cases for all age groups in this dataset will be less than the number of cases in the base dataset.
