Surely it makes sense that we are getting more positives because we are doing way more testing. If that’s the case we must be getting a lot more people showing negative but that doesn’t sell in the media. Just trying to put forward a more positive way of looking at it.
I guess that is one way to look at it, current testing rates (between 500-900k tests/day rolling average over the last month) is twice that of the testing capacity at the peak of the Jan 2021 wave, and almost three times that at Oct/Nov 2020 wave.
All for being conservative (with a small C) and following the science but its something to bare in mind, in the past months the testing capacity has been well over 1M/Day.
