Our daily update is published. We’ve now tracked 18.7 million tests, up 465k from yesterday, the second-highest daily total we've seen.

Note that we can only track tests that a state reports.

States reported fewer than 21k new cases today. The 7-day average fell a bit. After last week's higher numbers, we've seen some lower numbers, especially in the big states like CA and TX.
This is what a "patchwork pandemic" (as @edyong209 called it) looks like.

The regions vary, as do the states. While New York is seeing its best days since the very beginning, Arizona is seeing its worst.

Our daily update is published. We’ve now tracked 13.8 million tests, up 343k from yesterday.

5 states showed a decline in total tests due to separating out their antibody results: MI, MO, MS, TX, WV.

Details in this thread.
About antibody testing...

1) It is necessary to separate out these tests.
2) Antibody testing remains a small portion of the cumulative tests performed.
2) US viral testing really has scaled up a ton.
4) Antibody tests have grown as a % of daily tests.

Colorado, e.g.:
Don't be surprised if more states separate out antibody tests in the coming days.

We are currently tracking both PCR and antibody tests on the back end and will publish the antibody data soon.

So far, we've tracked 160k antibody tests, a small % of the real number we expect.

Several dozen of our volunteers spent the last 5 days evaluating the new @CDCgov data. This is the white paper we produced.

covidtracking.com/documents/CDC%…
We generated as complete a report as could comparing the CDC data with the numbers we compile from the states themselves.
There is a known difference between what states report and what the CDC says it is reporting. Some states report "people tested" while the CDC reports "specimens tested."

4 states report both—so we used them to calculate a ratio to adjust the "people tested" numbers.
