Instead, for states like these, it means "we've had 150K more negative tests results since we last could be bothered to give you a good estimate of negatives". Odds are that many those negatives actually occurred days ago or even weeks ago. — PolitiTweet.org

MANY states, California being the perhaps the worst offender, report positive tests diligently but negative tests erratically. So when you see a state report 150K "new" negative tests, it doesn't mean the tests were all conducted yesterday. — PolitiTweet.org

Importantly, the negatives do not necessarily line up with the positives. If I take a test Tuesday, and it's positive, it might show up in the data Wednesday in California. If it's negative then, who knows—it might show up next week. — PolitiTweet.org
