California vows to fix coronavirus reporting system amid huge backlog of unreported tests

A series of data failures has created a backlog of as many as 300,000 test results in California, the state’s top health official said Friday as he provided the first public explanation of a problem that has stymied efforts to understand the spread of the coronavirus.

Ghaly said the state would work through the backlog of records, which include COVID-19 tests and other health results, over the next 24 to 48 hours. He said state missteps compounded a problem that began with a server outage and promised a full investigation.The data failure set off alarm bells this week as total deaths surpassed 10,000 in California, a state that leads the nation in COVID-19 cases despite the undercount and has struggled to mitigate the virus.

Without an accurate picture of confirmed cases, many local officials that rely on the CalREDIE system have scrambled to conduct their own tallies to understand the spread of the virus in their communities. The state stopped adding and removing counties from its list of areas experiencing higher rates of transmission that are subject to more restrictions than other parts of California. Currently 38 counties, representing 97% of the state population, are on the list.

c_nov20 Surprised at how silent the rich and famous Hollywood types are staying, instead of calling this bullshit out. I would think they would want to go back to their normal lifestyles and be pissed off by now.

We won’t ever open up if they are doing this.

Look it's just like the CA_EDD

So I'm assuming this rolling 14 day average bullshit is wrong as well. How can GavinNewsom deem counties to be on a watch list with faulty data?

Do we need to shelter in place as a result of all the cases from May and June that weren’t announced?

A series ... has created.

Here come the panic stories!

California knocking it out if the park again 🙄

And just like that Big business and Huntington Beach MAGAt Nazis are going to get their watch list 'resets', while California drowns in covid. It seems GavinNewsom is playing for the other team after all
