People keep treating disparities in testing and other reporting problems as though they're rounding errors. They are...anything but. They can completely swamp the actual signal from case #'s. Unless you make an effort to account for them, you run a high risk of misleading people. https://t.co/jeknpXIOdm — PolitiTweet.org

Hey y'all. I have a deep dive today on how the number of *known coronavirus cases* isn't really a good way to know what's happening with the disease. Unless you know something about testing, anyway. Hope you'll check it out. https://t.co/VK7rCgBNMc — PolitiTweet.org

There are also some mathy bits in here, including a link to spreadsheet where you can input your own assumptions about tests and see how they affect the number of reported cases in a hypothetical country. But I hope the article is useful whether or not you're math-inclined. https://t.co/ECry0zJ7RX — PolitiTweet.org
