For the curious: Michigan's positive test rate on 19May2020 was: 435 new cases/12726 tests = 0.034, or 3.4%. Which is pretty good and means they are finding most cases within the section of the community they are testing.
For comparison, Australian testing rates (some of the best in the world) are around 0.5% to 1% in the week after the peak of cases.
