In reply to the discussion: So far, no spike in coronavirus in places reopening, U.S. health secretary says [View all]cannabis_flower

Is it because there are more sick people showing up or because there is more testing? I have also heard that Texas have ramped up testing.
The state, one of the first to start reopening, reported an increase of 1,801 positive coronavirus cases on Saturday.
But it's not clear whether the surge is simply due to more testing, or if the virus is spreading more rampantly.
