Wait, you mean that 9% of people that thought they were sick and got tested ended up positive? That. Insane that sick people are testing positive!

Do, if only one test was conducted and it came back negative, you'd have to say that COVID19 gad been eradicated.

Smart thinking, smonk.

Can ya'll read?

Oh that's right no need to. Just a bunch of folks that are not planning to look at the data from the Harvard Global Health Institute

Scroll down to the Testing...

The percent positive is reported by NCDHHS and represents the average percent of tests that are positive during the last two weeks. Counties with fewer than an average of 50 daily tests for the two weeks are not shown because there are not enough electronically reported tests in that county to provide a reliable percent positive calculation. The percent positive may fluctuate substantially as there are a smaller number of tests than the state percent positive. All data are preliminary and subject to change.

State/County Total Tests Completed % Positive N.C. 3,640,086

% Positive
Watauga 19,985 6.1%
Avery N/A 32.1%
Ashe 9,883 4.8%
Caldwell 27,236 8.3%
Wilkes N/A 9.1%

Is it any wonder why we got so much? I was in wal mart this morning and 20 people was walking around without a mask. I was wearing a mask. Some seem to think this is a political game and virus is not real but it will be here after the election no matter who wins. So s keep walking around with out a mask and possible spreading it and a few had a kid with them and one had a baby with them. I didn't really know Wilkes had people that . They put one on to get in then take it off. Shows how much they are concerned about the other citizens here. Stay away from these s.

Smirk,
Really, Wilkes County is a county located in the US state of North Carolina. It is a part of the state's western mountain region. As of the 2010 census, the population was 69,340.
From the Wilkes JP,
10/19 1,566 35 5 1,350
10/20 1,569 35 not posted not posted

So let's do the math, 9.1% of 69,340 = 6,3099

Do you need to revise your earlier assertion.

Of course we can't get this information from the Health Dept.

They won't tell us the number of test that have been done and it's takes days maybe weeks before we know how many more have died.

It took well over a week with this last death for them to report it.
