Tests are driven by complaints of symptoms.


not everywhere

here in IL we can only test 4000 a day
they are trying to increase that to 10,000 a day later this week

also around 20% of the total cases in the US were positive

that is a high number compared to other countries such as South Korea

That means that we are still missing many cases

Thank you. Understood. If the curve of daily new cases does peak out, it will have been hard to simulate that outcome by limiting tests. It will have some meaning. But we don’t know what the next days will bring. Thanks again.
