Remark: These data only refer to cases that occurred in the Flemish and Walloon Region. Data of the Brussels Capital Region are not available. (The Brussels Capital Region has approximately 950 000 inhabitants, which is about 10% of the Belgian population). Because of a serious underreporting, this number is an underestimation.
