We are doing very well....

No. Think about it.
Percent positive is number of infections divided by number of tests.
The higher the percent the higher the infection rate.

 

Your data is tainted. The vast majority of people coming in for tests are doing so because they either feel sick with the symptoms, or they came in close contact with someone who tested positive. The people who feel fine, and have no reason to think they have been infected are not coming in for tests

 

So if more people are sick that's not a problem?
Oh, and spoiler. It's always been that way.

 

I'm saying that if all you are doing is testing people who are already hospitalized,as we did during the lockdown, and now we are only testing people who are feeling sick, it does not tell you how contagious the disease is, all you are doing is verifying that sick people are in fact sick. You are not testing all the millions of people who came into contact with the virus and never caught it.

I'd rather see an actual medical study concerning how contagious the virus is, then assume you know it's level of contagion from people who already are sick. People who already have an infection, or have the flu and feel sick, may be more susceptible to contracting COVID. So testing people who feel sick is not a good measurement.

 

90% of the people we are testing do not have it.

 

and 90% of the people have not been tested, so I don't see how you can draw so many conclusions from the type of testing we have done. That's all I'm saying.

 

Did you take statistics in school?
