I am still struck by the number of negative tests.

11% of tests positive in the country (89% negative)
7% positive in Washington (93% negative)

The only people being tested are the very sick, the very rich and the very famous.

The rest of us have no idea if we are infected with no, mild or moderate symptoms.

The flu is still out and about.

I am still struck by the number of negative tests. 11% of tests positive in the country (89% negative) 7% positive in Washington (93% negative)

Yet we are told an est. 80% of the infected do not know they are.

Percentages can be deceptive, because they do not tell the whole picture. Seven percent of 100 is 7; of 1000 is 70. Those are actual people, not just numbers. So in WA, 7% of about 20,700 tested is 1,376. So 93% - 19,336 people - tested negative. I assume these people had some symptoms???
