May 1 Update: US COVID-19 Test Results: Progress

The US might be able to test 400,000 to 600,000 people per day in several weeks according to Dr. Fauci - and that would probably be sufficient for test and trace.

There were 320,628 test results reported over the last 24 hours (the number of tests yesterday were revised up).

The percent positive over the last 24 hours was 10.8% (red line). The US probably needs enough tests to push  the percentage positive below 5%. (probably much lower based on testing in New Zealand).
