May 3 Update: US COVID-19 Test Results

by Calculated Risk on 5/03/2020 05:04:00 PM

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

There were 237,019 test results reported over the last 24 hours (the number of tests yesterday were revised up).

This data is from the COVID Tracking Project.

The percent positive over the last 24 hours was 11.1% (red line). The US probably needs enough tests to push  the percentage positive below 5%. (probably much lower based on testing in New Zealand).
