Understood, but it does seem less egregious than reporting negative tests as positive. In the grand scheme of things, do we know how much this affected the positivity rate?

If you pay attention and check data.... you will find similar stuff happening all over the place.... it’s impossible to trust any of the info especially with questions about the reliability of testing.

PSA in Nashville/Davidson county if you get questioned by the cops about not wearing a mask just tell them you have a health condition that you can't wear one and you don't have to show proof.

So it sounds like those labs may have just been reporting their positive results, which would mean that they're simply not reporting their total number or tests, not falsely reporting their positives.

Coronavirus update: Florida labs not reporting negative test results, report says

That's almost certainly what is happening - but I thought that was known as soon as these reports came out (actually its been known for a while that some labs don't report negative results)

The labs are REQUIRED to report both, so yes, they should be held liable. This manufactured "spike" in the positivity rate is an important factor in policy decision-making.

Since these results are reported to states - does this requirement vary state by state? My understanding is that it does, but I have only read that in general commentary - not in actual guidelines.

Regardless, it's ridiculous not to report them and for states to not throw a fit until they get them.

don't know who dreamed this up but it is brilliant! A worldwide pandemic is absolutely the only thing that could possibly derail the Trump reelection bid!

It happened and the democrats have taken the ball and ran with it!

Everyone has become so brainwashed that common sense no longer exists. All the talk about deaths, ventilators, hospital ships, and mobile hospitals springing up has blinded us to the reality.

That virus has mutated and weakened but no one will talk about that.

When re reported 2.5 million cases, it was discovered through antibody testing that maybe we underestimated it by a factor of ten! Instead of 2.5 million infections maybe there are over twenty million???????

It's all a bunch of bull crap! Its a virus that can hurt sick people --those at risk include the obese, diabetic, copd, an heart ailments but the healthy have very little to fear.

I can say this because I am a Covid 19 survivor. Matter of fact I am infected as I write this. I had one symptom and one symptom alone. I have a rash on my right arm. Its sortta like a very mild case of poison ivy like we had as kids. I am 79 years old and it couldn't even give me a fever! It only gives me a small rash!

AND WE SHUT THE COUNTRY DOWN OVER THIS!!!

WAKE UP!!!! IT'S ALL POLITICS!!!

LETS GO PLAY FOOTBALL!

Maybe his net worth is smoke and mirrors.

Even if an illusion, the article lays out the estimated revenue from licensing his name and image. You should read it. I think it's the perfect business model for a blow hard attention seeker.
