called this a "re-categorization", and presented a new data entry system which —according to provincial health minister daniel gollán— would avoid future under-reporting and data criticism. the deaths were later included in the national report of 1 october 2020. on 9 september 2021, by request of the 24 jurisdictions and because the manual loading of data from discharges of patients generates an overload in the epidemiological surveillance system, a change was applied in the algorithm for classificacion of active/non-active cases in the national health surveillance system, in which cases not classified as deceased and with more than 90 days elapsed from notification date became classified as non-active. model-based simulations for argentina indicate that the 95% confidence interval for
