@PollsterPatrick @PatrickRuffini The positive testing rate can have issues, but it is leaps and bounds better than the raw number of positive tests. It is a useful metric to a first approximation, while the raw number (without context on test volume) is a useless one to a first approximation. — PolitiTweet.org

Korea now seems to think the so-called "re-infections" it found are actually just false positives. A lot of smart epidemiologists thought this was likely the case all along, so not a huge surprise, but passing this along for people who freaked out earlier. https://t.co/C3iIjxDr7S — PolitiTweet.org

@PollsterPatrick @PatrickRuffini Mortality isn't perfect, either. It's lagging, and there are a lot of issues with respect to how we're counting deaths. I think measures related to hospitalizations should theoretically be the most robust measures, but they aren't always robustly reported in practice. — PolitiTweet.org
