Cumulative cases
The numbers of cases in the tables below referred to the number of cases at the end of each day (23:59 AEDT) until 4 April 2020. Since 5 April 2020, the federal government standardised the daily case number release time to 15:00 AEST which has been reflected in the data.[16]
This data has been compiled by recording the daily values from the infographic available under "Current Status" on the Australian Government's Department of Health website.[17] Under National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System reporting requirements, cases are reported based on their Australian jurisdiction of residence rather than where they were detected.
The following charts represent changes in net number of cases on a daily basis and is based on the number of cases reported in the Federal Government's daily reports.

Active cases
As of 14 August 2021, there are 6,577 estimated active cases of COVID-19 in Australia. A case is considered active if a person who was COVID-19 positive but has yet to be classified as recovered and has not died. The chart below tracks active cases since 5 April, when the Federal Government began reporting nationwide recovery data. However, since 20 July, the Federal Government began reporting official estimation of nationwide active cases and has been reflected in the chart.[17]

Clusters
The largest cluster in Australia so far in the pandemic was the Flemington/North Melbourne public housing cluster with 310 cases.[19] The deadliest cluster in Australia was at St Basil's Homes for the Aged in Victoria, where 45 residents died.[20]
Cases by source of infection
The following table lists the cases by their source of infection per state/territory. High numbers of cases with unknown sources of infection indicates high risk of community transmission and increased difficulty in tracing and stopping the spread of COVID-19.[21][22] There have been estimated to be around 1,300 cases that have been associated with cruise ships in Australia.[17]
