This is from Kern County but the same thing in happened in Arizona.

I have always wondered if there aren't several times the amount of people who catch COVID-19 when in area has alot of cases but they are never diagnosed.

Just seems odd how so many areas have a 2 to 4 week skyrocketing case period and then it collapses.

It is interesting how an area will have hardly any cases than the number of positive tests skyrockets for a month and then plunges by 90%+

I really wonder if a massive amount of people are catching COVID-19 when their community is a hotspot and a larger than thought percent don't get tested.

Kern County, CA for instance goes from 33 cases a day to 797 cases a day just over a month later, a month after that they are now down to about 46 positive cases per day.

It's all about testing.

If you tested every American right now you'd get numbers so high that the statistics for those with symptoms and those dead would become almost non-existent.
