A dirty secret: private labs don't report their positive results on COVID19 tests to state or federal entities.

Let me repeat:
The corps running the vast majority of COVID19 tests are not required to report the number of positive test results to the government or the public.
We have ZERO idea how many cases there actually are in the wild, nor do we have any idea how many cases have resolved.

10 Million tests were available, I can't even find how many tests have been RUN, let alone the proportion of positive:negative results.

There very may well be 27 Million tests available through the end of the month.

But we're not going to know what the outcome from most of those tests are.

Because they don't get reported.

And that's just the way Trump wants it.
Fortunately, the Bay Area is smart enough to mandate all testing be made public.

We need this provision to be implemented nationwide.
Your citizens need it to survive.
