The US has also been ramping up testing, assuming number of infections is a linear function of known cases is a mistake.

- Retric 7y agoWe are not doing 16,000 / 42 = 380x more tests per day on March 20th vs March 1st. It’s not even obvious if we are overlooking a larger fraction of infections today than back then. Also of note that 30% daily increase I spoke of underestimates the difference between March 1 and March 20th.
