Hello Scott,
Thank you for your message. We are aware of this disconnect and are working to correct it. Historically, the update of the codes on the Prerelease page ( https://loinc.org/prerelease/ ) has been a periodic, manual effort. We are working to update this page’s contents in an automated fashion each day. This is what is happening now on the COVID page ( https://loinc.org/sars-cov-2-and-covid-19 ) and the larger Submissions Queue Details page ( https://loinc.org/submissions/queue/ ).
In the short term (within the next week) we will perform another manual update of the Prerelease page to get it in sync with the COVID page. Then, within a month or two, we will make the switch to automated updates on the Prerelease page.
I hope this addresses your concerns. Please let us know if not.
