Negative PCR tests (specimens)

Total number of completed PCR tests (or specimens tested) that return negative as reported by the state or territory. For states/territories that do not report this number directly, we compute it using one of several methods, depending on which data points the state provides. If we discover that a jurisdiction is including antigen tests in this metric, we will annotate that state or territory’s data accordingly.

Total number of completed viral tests (or specimens tested) that return negative as reported by the state or territory. For states and territories that do not directly report this number, it is calculated as the difference between the total number completed viral tests (“Total tests (PCR)”) and the total number of completed viral tests that return positive (“Positive tests (PCR)”) where appropriate.
