2023-08-17 12:48:35 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

There is no longer a comparable test-positivity rate in the United States. Negative tests are not accurately counted and many or most labs no longer report this information. This data is not useful as it is incomplete, and inflated vs historical results. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/testing/individual-states
