It's interesting. The CDC, Trump and others are touting test kit availability but from what I can gather, less than 5000 tests have been administered so far.

Does anyone have a good understanding of how many tests in the US have been administered?

This is changing by the hour, but your figure sounds accurate as of cob yesterday.

From CDC.gov: “As of March 5, 2020 1,583 patients had been tested at CDC”.
