U.S. coronavirus testing actually fell slightly today. This is disappointing.
Hopefully it's just lumpy reporting, and it'll surge again tomorrow. But our growth rate seems to be slowing down, and we're still at only half of Korean levels.

NY slowed from 17k/day to 13k/day. Could be a sign of new restrictions on testing.
CA reported only 1k compared to >13k the day before. That's probably lumpy reporting rather than a real drop in testing.

WA is holding roughly steady at around 3k-4k/day.
NJ had a big bump in testing, up to 12k/day from 2k/day. That could be lumpy reporting, or the state starting to report more private-clinic tests.

There could be a day-of-the-week effect here. There's only around 3 weeks of data, but it looks like Mondays and Wednesdays tend to have the largest increases, while Tuesdays tend to be the worst. So I guess we'll wait til tomorrow and see...
