[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you not click on the graph of the rolling 7-day positivity? It's 3.4%.

Any one day of data is not particularly meaningful.

Why is everyone so hell bent on pushing an agenda instead of just interpreting straight facts?[/quote]

You're looking at old numbers. Look at the actual numbers in the city's spreadsheet. Here are the figures from the past seven days:

On Aug. 12, DC conducted 2,908 tests, and had 65 positives. That's a 2.2 percent positivity rate.

On Aug. 11, DC conducted 1,992 tests and had 63 positives. That's a 3.1 percent positivity rate.

On Aug. 10, DC conducted 4358 tests and had 89 positives. That's a 2.0 percent positivity rate.

On Aug. 9, DC conducted 2449 tests and had 54 positives. That's 2.2 percent positivity rate.

On Aug. 8, DC conducted 4608 tests and had 100 positives. That's 2.2 percent positivity rate.

On Aug. 7, DC conducted 4609 tests and had 64 positives. That's a 1.4 percent positivity rate. [/quote]

Oops I forgot Aug. 6 when DC conducted 2742 tests and had 71 positives. That’s a 2.5 percent positivity rate.

Over the past week, that’s an average 2.2 percent positivity rate.[/quote]

Yes, DC's numbers are good in comparison to the rest of the country. But that's like being the hooker with the fewest std's in the brothel.

When DC can consistently get the positivity rate below 1 percent while maintaining a high level of test and trace, then we can talk about going back to school. Right now we've plateaued at above 2 percent. It isn't going up much but it also isn't going down.[/quote]
