It's pretty easy to see how many positive tests there have been by country, but does anyone know of a site that shows how many total tests are administered? It would help to try and determine if a countries low numbers are just because they aren't tested.

Interesting. That probably explains India's low numbers. They are the lowest tests per person in the world.

Am i supposed to believe the Russians have done 76,000 tests and only came up with 114 positive cases?

They just test the same five people over and over again.

I work directly with public health. The only way to know is to total the number of tests at the labs that process them, and I doubt the CDC/Feds will allow this information to be spread to the general population.

Public health departments are only told of positive tests in the their counties. Local providers are able to swab and send the tests to the labs just like strep/flu tests. Those numbers are not reported locally.

They said they are going to start funneling all the test numbers from all the labs to the CDC and it will be made public.
