President Trump has attributed the jump in COVID-19 cases to an increase in testing, but an NBCNews analysis of state test and case data shows case counts are rising even in places where testing is coming down.

Take Wisconsin, where daily new cases have increased by 28 percent over the past two weeks. During the same period, the number of tests decreased by 14 percent.

Safdar said that in talking to patients, experts have learned that patients are spending more time indoors at bars and restaurants or are gathering in greater numbers. Dr. Jake Deutsch, founder of Cure Urgent Care in New York City, said his clinics are conducting up to 250 tests a day, double the number in the spring. But Deutsch said the clinics had only about a dozen positive tests in the past week, which he attributed to New York's delayed reopening.

NEWSFLASH: We have an analysis from NBC. Don't put the kids to bed yet. This COULD be important.

NBCNews So what is the death rate?

But it's not just the rate it's the number of tests. The positive rate is up 1%-2% to 6% but also the number of tests have gone up from 500K to 600K over the past few weeks. So 100K more tests at 6% is 4K more cases then add 1%-2% for another 1K-2K more cases.

NBCNightlyNews But, always a but

NBCNightlyNews Of course the protests had nothing to do with any of these increases.

NBCNews And you still don’t mention the riots for the last month as having ANYTHING to do with this Beyond journalistic malpractice

NBC News only does analysis to debunk Trump not because they are curious or want to provide newsworthy information.

realDonaldTrump is a liar. Plain and simple. You can’t trust a single word out of his mouth. He’s the golden god of presidents past and future. The standard all presidents must be compared to. Thankfully, he set the low standard. I’d take any TV or movie president over him.

Cases don’t mean anything! Death and hospitalization.

Data = plural; Datum = singular

Trump is flying kites again... its bollox and he knows it...

Deaths and hospitalizations are trending down

Pandemic is over

Anyone talking about “cases” without mentioning hospitalizations & deaths, is not being honest.

Don't believe anything that you tweet.

Ask him if more tests are sending more people to the hospital.

The US is under international lockdown. No one wants Americans in their countries! The States lead the world by far with 2.7 million COVID-19 cases and over 130,000 Covid deaths. That’s 1/4 of the total COVID 19 deaths in the world! Winning!!

Fake news Dont buy the propaganda They are counting positive antibody tests of people who USED to have the disease as active cases Fake News Alert

“ analysts” LoL these are the same idiots that said “Hellary is winning at 4:00 pm on Election night 2016.” I’d believe Juicy Smollet’ on a date w Dahmer singing a Milli Vanilli song on April 1st before I’d believe .

BREAKING: TRUMP IS A LIAR.

If a person tests positive three times before he tests negative, is that listed as one case or three?

Wonder if it's where the protests(riots) are happening

RT to RealDonaldTrump

Every legitimate news channel - which excludes Fox & Sky News - are reporting this johnsonesque, complete turd throwing those under his watch under a bus in desperation to keep his saggy ass in power by putting $ before hundreds of thousands of US lives

So COVID actually didn't discriminate between Trump and BLM rallies?

The president with no testing plan talking about the testing.

senatemajldr GOP realDonaldTrump

He forgot rioting and protesting

Why not just stop testing and recording Covid cases altogether and announcing to the country that you singlehandedly cured everyone. It'll be bullshit but that hasn't stopped you before, Donnie.

Could the jump in coronavirus cases be due to the riots/protests and the FDA stopping treatment with Hydroxychloroquine ? They seem to coincide.

Misleading graph and headline. All you did was confirm what the president said

Narrator: NBC hasn’t learned that everything that Donald Trump says is a lie.

Increase in testing does not make the hospitals in the states Arizona Texas full of sick patients so that ambulances are having trouble unloading any new ones if you're sick you can't get in the hospital.☠☠☠☠😲

Trump has no clue what’s going on with this virus. We deserve better leadership. Vote
