      Our daily update is published. We’ve now tracked ~3.1 million tests, up 146k from yesterday, right about the April average. Note that we can only track tests that a state reports. And not all states report all tests. For details, see: http://covidtracking.com

      Deaths, unfortunately, bounced back as they did last Tuesday. This is the highest death total for any day so far: 2,299. That's up 849 day-over-day and up 373 compared to a week ago. This is not what anyone was hoping to see in today's data.pic.twitter.com/6AyYJUurRv

      As @the_under_score points out, there have been big spikes for 3 tuesdays in a row. Is this a coincidence, or some kind of artifact?

          Less tests are processed on weekends, so there is a jump after every Monday. Unfortunately don't have a link to source.

          Possibly for as minor a reason as data collection backlog from the weekend?

          I've been averaging out Friday+Saturday+Sunday+Monday, and using that avg as the plug for each of these days.
