| 2025-11-02 | In the past, this website has been very stable with down time happening only a couple of times every decade. Due to a server failure we now had a downtime of almost nine hours but are now back online. Sorry for the inconvinience. Vi added a new top menu option for the interested: Status. |

| 2025-09-07 | We have begun an extensive update of the website to make it bilingual (English and Swedish). This will cause some operational disruptions for a period. |
| 2025-09-06 | The icon for the chat bot Science Ronny was moved from the bottom right to the bottom left. |
| 2025-08-13 | The website infovoice.se was from the start intended to be in Swedish and the site science-network.tv for English-speaking users. To reduce the workload, preparations are being made to move science-network.tv to infovoice.se, so only one website needs maintenance. This means that from the upcoming homepage, you will choose Swedish or English. |
| 2025-07-09 | The EPV-Calculator was updated to version 3.4. The reason was that in some unusual scenarios with very low numbers the lower 95% confidence interval for positive EPV could incorrectly become 100%. Similarily the upper 95% confidence interval could in similar circumstances become 0%. The error was easily spotted since the point estimate for EPV was not included in the presented 95% confidence interval. This error is now fixed. The online calculator calculates EPV for a single scenario each time. An Excel file was uploaded that can calculate EPV for multiple scenarios simultanously. The Excel file can also merge all scenarios (publications) when a meta-analysis is done. The Excel file can be downloaded on the page for the EPV-Calculator. |

| 2024-12-07 | Extensive testing revealed a glitch in the EPV-Calculator that could occur when calculating extreme scenarios. None of these scenarios would occur in real life but the calculator should handle them. Hence, the calculator was updated to version 3.3. |
| 2024-11-20 | Extensive testing revealed a glitch in the EPV-Calculator that could occur when calculating scenarios where prevalance of the potential pathogen was higher among controls compared to cases.
