Data Verification - Zilber School of Public Health, Milwaukee, WI #262

Hello,

I am a public health graduate student at Zilber School of Public Health, and I have some questions specifically on the Wisconsin data.

  1. On 3/30, the data lists -585 tests. How can there be a negative test value?
  2. For the field "New Tests" are these figures reflective of that day (i.e. for 4/22, were 1,886 tests conducted or does that represent the date the test was processed/test results returned?)
  3. What happens to the pending test values? Do those get retroactively adjusted into that date's positive/negative results column as the results come in?
  4. Do we know what types of tests the state of WI is giving (i.e standard vs rapid test that has been hypothesized to have a higher false negative rate)?

I appreciate your time! Best, Lisa Blair
