|caption=1) On 23 March 2020, the large jump in positive results corresponds to a directive that local PCR tests done by designated hospitals no longer need to be confirmed by the Public Health laboratory. Previously, tests confirmed only at designated hospitals were considered "presumed" rather than "confirmed".<br/>2) On 16 April 2020, the increase in deaths is due to a change in methodology and the time taken for epidemiological investigations.<br/>3) On 3 May 2020, the large increase in cases includes the increase from the previous day (892 new cases) and 1,317 cases from April that hadn't yet been tabulated due to a technical problem.

The decision was subsequently reversed. The data for June 25, 26 and 27 provided by the Québec Government is missing the number of recoveries. For the sake of transparency, the number of recoveries for the missing dates was set to the same value as that of June 25.<br>5) On 17 July 2020, the large number of recoveries is due to a revision of the algorithm used by the Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ) to determine when a person may be considered recovered.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Rowe |first1=Daniel |title=Quebec COVID-19 recovery rate skyrockets after new system implemented |url=https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/quebec-covid-19-recovery-rate-skyrockets-after-new-system-implemented-1.5028344 |access-date=17 July 2020 |work=CTV News |date=17 July 2020 |archive-url=https://archive.is/KOF6m |archive-date=17 July 2020}}</ref><br>6) The numbers for Christmas (December 25, 2020) and recoveries for Boxing Day (December 26, 2020) were not available.<br>7) The number of deaths and recoveries for January 1, 2021 and January 2, 2021 were not reported but the cumulative amount were added to the tally on January 3, 2021.<br/>8) Of the 88 deaths announced on January 22, 2021, 37 occurred between December 6, 2020 and January 17, 2021.
