How to use the "Or" statement when having multiple conditions in the Where clause in SQLite?

I am trying to retrieve data that has "Positive" result and the code set that contains any of these codes: [U071, R12, Z515, R509] as my desired goal for Table 1. I have tried using "or" but it kept giving me a mixture of negative and positive results instead of positive results only. I hope my question is clear as I am fairly new here.

Desired goal for Table 1:

ID START_DATE TEST RESULT Code END_DATE
1 03-31-2021 positive U071 03-31-2021
2 06-06-2020 positive R12 06-09-2020
2 06-06-2020 positive Z515 06-10-2020
3 06-30-2021 positive R509 07-02-2021
4 08-08-2020 positive U071 08-10-2020
4 08-09-2020 positive Z515 08-10-2020

Note: I would also like ID 2 to be grouped as 1.

The problem:

ID START_DATE TEST RESULT Code END_DATE
1 03-31-2021 positive U071 03-31-2021
2 06-05-2020 negative R12 06-09-2020
2 06-05-2020 negative Z515 06-09-2020
3 06-03-2021 positive R509 07-02-2021
4 08-10-2020 negative U071 08-10-2020
4 08-06-2020 positive Z515 08-10-2020

My code:

CREATE TABLE table1 AS
select   ID
        ,TEST_RESULT  
        ,START_DATE
        ,END_DATE
        ,Code
from table0
where TEST_RESULT = 'POSITIVE' AND Code = 'U071' OR Code = 'Z20828' OR DIAGNOSIS_CD = 'Z20822' OR DIAGNOSIS_CD = 'R112' OR DIAGNOSIS_CD = 'R509'
group by ID, START_DATE
ORDER BY ID;

>Solution :

I think the real issue is you did not use ( after the and. But you can use IN to make it clearer — like this:

where TEST_RESULT = 'POSITIVE' AND (Code IN ('U071','Z20828') OR DIAGNOSIS_CD IN ('Z20822','R112','R509'))
