I disagree. In order for a hospitalization to count, they have to have a positive test. First, we have to factor in test inaccuracy and then the fact that doctors are still triaging tests even if a patient has symptoms. These numbers can't be considered accurate until we have enough tests to test everyone in the waiting room indiscriminately.
