Louisiana does not include antibody tests results in the numbers. Georgia was doing this for a while to manipulate the testing percentage but stopped. How would all tests be positive?
Are you positive? (Pun intended)
Fundamentally, negative antibody tests don’t really mean anything. Likely why positives would be reported but not negatives, if that makes sense.
ETA: Thank you, serial down-voter, love you.

Even with a positive antibody result, the CDC still requires an additional piece of evidence, either a clinical symptom or symptoms, or evidence of exposure, before it is considered a probable case.

Yes, handled the same in my dealings, though we’ve shifted away from accepting antibody results at all given the constant changes to what’s what. Just saying it’s much easier to qualify a positive than a negative from reporting standpoint at my eye level. The symptom requirement alone that you referenced is nearly all encompassing when you think about it.

Do if i already tested positive and am “one case” and I donate blood and they check for antibodies, I’d be “another case”??????

JBE clearly said NO thisbwasnt being done in a press conference — wish I could remember when.
Is he lying? I mean I’m not surprised if so.

Did anyone happen to see the hospitalizations/vents chart on LDH site yesterday then today?
Entire chart is different. Data points way off.
Not sure how to post pics or would for comparison.
