I found it! Presumably for other states as well. Decent charts and seems current

Daily State-by-State Testing Trends

Data Source: Testing data from The COVID Tracking Project.

It is important to track the testing that states are doing to diagnose people with COVID-19 infection in order to gauge the spread of COVID-19 in the U.S. and to know whether enough testing is occurring. When states report the number of COVID-19 tests performed, this should include the number of viral tests performed and the number of patients for which these tests were performed. Currently, states may not be distinguishing overall tests administered from the number of individuals who have been tested. This is an important limitation to the data that is available to track testing in the U.S., and states should work to address it.

When states report testing numbers for COVID-19 infection, they should not include serology or antibody tests. Antibody tests are not used to diagnose active COVID-19 infection and they do not provide insights into the number of cases of COVID-19 diagnosed or whether viral testing is sufficient to find infections that are occurring within each state. States that include serology tests within their overall COVID-19 testing numbers are misrepresenting their testing capacity and the extent to which they are working to identify COVID-19 infections within their communities. States that wish to track the number of serology tests being performed should report those numbers separately from viral tests performed to diagnose COVID-19.

Agreed - the antigen and antibody tests have completely different implications - and are not interchangeable.

and - we understand poorly the false pos and neg results inherent in testinig.

It serves only to create confusion and fear - something the DPST's love, desire, and wallow in as they believe it is to their political benefit.


DPST's may now respond with 'Outage" and irrelevant memes and plumbing videos.

Yup , more confusion , and censorship several doctors have come out and been removed of inweb, Dr S Gold is just the last one.
This is ALL for politico/money ...... This is not new its 78% the same as coivd sars 1 2005 in which faccy agreed hydrx (whatever) worked BUT now ????
It looks like Texas is over the hump on new cases. The last week has been in the 6500-9000 range. Down from 10K-15K from a couple of weeks ago.


But it will take another month and a half to two months of lockdown and disciplined mask wearing to get it below 500 per day, like NY.
