[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Total cases” and even “new cases” are relatively meaningless to the extent they merely represent identification of heretofore unidentified cases via more widespread testing. New hospital admissions/new ICU admissions (or more precisely change in daily populations) is a much stronger indicator of the current state of serious disease. [/quote] New cases aren't meaningless if the virus is to be contained. [/quote] If testing is capturing all the cases, yes. But when, as here, all cases are 10 to 50x confirmed positives, you can be getting increased cases while actual infection rates are dropping. Which is why percent of tests that are positive is a more meaningful piece of data.[/quote]
