Does this chart show cases as a proportion of the number of tests being carried out? cause otherwise wouldnt that be very misleading, as amount of tests has increased over time

@DrEricDing
This doesn't give precise understanding of spread (tho general picture) b/c early on so little testing done. Certainly more cases occurred during low testing.
A graph of change in positivity (percent positive of total tested) would show changes in spread better.
@euromaestro
Yes, pretty terrible BUT this is not doubling time shrinking; this is just next million time shrinking, much better really. Still, amply bad.
