K, gotcha.
Real infection rate is not the “#of positive tests” rate.
Agreed.

I think her point is that until we get a baseline of accurate tests it is difficult to generate any widely applicable statistics.

And, there are a lot of different terms being bandied about, by people within the healthcare community and general public. That leads to confusion.

Someone I know was sick as a dog last week and didn’t take a day off work. He finally saw a doctor after flying domestically twice. Doctor didn’t test but said he probably had CV and now will be immune from it.
