backlog of over 25,000 tests? Where the hell have they been hiding?

Also, I thought positives had to be reported immediately. Why are they backlogged Mack to late May, over 2 months ago?

If this coupled with the 1,700+ backlogged positives from 2 months ago doesn't scream frickery and/or extreme incompetence, nothing does.

That could be any number, if they're just pulling numbers out of their arse.

Just think if all these negative tests were applied at the appropriate time. The daily positive rate would have never been over 10% for any day!

But they are not manipulating the numbers to say what they want them to say.

Umm the dump from today looks fantastic

Percent positive way down on the dump and hospitalizations down as well


Only one actual number will get discussed and everyone knows it.

They should go back and spread those numbers back to the date of collection, so maybe you will see some of the % positives from those days decrease

I'll say it slowly so you understand the peril we're in.

Memorial.

It's just their way of telling us it's not spreading in nursing homes and prisons
