Sampling sites for COVID tests

## Context These data are collected through an online survey of public and private medical biology laboratories carrying out nasopharyngeal samples for analysis by RT-PCR known as PCR for SARS-CoV2 RNA. ### Producer The survey is set up by the DGS Health Crisis Centre. The technical implementation is carried out by the DREES health. ### Data This dataset provides information on the sites where virological testing (RT-PCR) can be performed: — Site identifiers — Location and geolocation of the site — The method of collection — Type of public welcomed — The opening hours of the site — Opening hours of the site for priority people — Whether or not to make an appointment — Telephone number and email address or website to make an appointment if necessary — The latest update date of one of the laboratories attached to the legal identifier ### Point of attention on data Please note that: — The data are likely to evolve regularly when inaccuracies are identified or the laboratories modify, in agreement with the ARS, their public reception arrangements for carrying out naso-pharyngeal samples; — **not all sampling sites welcome the general public.** A table for restricted sites is offered separately. Please refer to the “public” column to inform you of the type of audience being welcomed. ## Diffusion The broadcast site [general public sante.fr](https://sante.fr/recherche/trouver/DepistageCovid) integrates this data daily. ### About the data By default, geographic coordinates are collected from the [FINESS database of geolocated establishments](https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/finess-extraction-du-fichier-des-etablissements/). Otherwise laboratories can enter the address manually, the input is based on the [API address made available to Etalab](http://geo.api.gouv.fr/). When the geo API does not find the desired address, the lab places the marker on the map and checks the associated address using the reverse geocoding function [(reverse) of the geo API](http://geo.api.gouv.fr/). ### Lexicon — API = Application Programming Interface — Drees = Directorate of Research, Studies, Evaluation and Statistics at the Ministry of Solidarity and Health — DGS = Directorate-General for Health — Ars = Regional Health Agency ### File columns — ‘ID’: Identifier — ‘id_ej’: Legal Finess — ‘Finess’: Geographical Finess — ‘RS’: Company name — ‘address’: Address — ‘cpl_loc’: Complement localisation — ‘do_prel’: Performs RT-PCR test — ‘do_antigenic’: Performs antigenic test — ‘longitude’: Longitude — ‘latitude’: Latitude — ‘mod_prel’: Method of collection — ‘public’: Audiences welcomed — ‘time’: Schedule — ‘schedule_prio’: Priority persons schedule — ‘check_rdv’: With or without an appointment — ‘tel_rdv’: Phone made appointment — ‘web_rdv’: Website made an appointment — ‘modif_date’: Last update date
