On February 9, 2021, Wyoming’s Total PCR tests (specimens) fell from 704,836 to 595,970. We carried the previous day’s number as we believed this may have been an error and wanted to allow them time to correct it. On February 10, 2021, we learned that the decrease was "Due to recent changes in reporting by commercial laboratories, some test results were being counted twice. Testing numbers have been corrected to reflect these changes therefore a decrease in the testing numbers will be observed for Non-WPHL labs. That decrease is attributed to the removal of duplicate tests being reported". As a result of this new information, we are backfilling our Total PCR tests (specimens) to reflect this new information and ensure that our data aligns as closely as possible with the states.

On February 9, 2021, Wyoming’s **Total PCR tests (specimens)** fell from 704,836 to 595,970 with no explanation. We carried over the previous day’s number. However, on February 10, 2021, Wyoming's **Total PCR tests (specimens)** and **Negative PCR tests (people)** had each decreased by approximately 100K, while their **Positive PCR tests (specimens)** decreased by approximately 10K. These decreases were due to de-duplication of test results, caused by changes in reporting from commercial laboratories.
