Covid Contraction
08/25/2020 |
Through 4/15/20, positive Covid-19 tests were 20% of all tests, but testing was very limited. From 4/15/20-6/15/20 as testing jumped from 150,000/day to 500,000/day the percentage of positives steadily declined to 4%. However, from mid-June through mid-July infection rates doubled to 8%, while tests/day steadily rose to 700,000. Since then, testing has flatlined but the infection rate has slowly declined to 6%. Still too high but the trend is good.
