Issue number 1082

Open in Github

States: Alaska, California, Washington DC, Georgia, Kentucky, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, Washington

Issue: We are removing negatives that were created from mixed units (specimens minus cases or test encounters minus cases) for states that are using explicit totals in our main total test results field (called totalTestResults in the API). See the Data FAQ for additional explanation.

#864: [KY] Probables Backfill Using Positive - Positive Cases(PCR) from 5/22 - 7/28

State or US: Kentucky

Describe the problem State reports Probables back to 5/21/20. Using calculation of Positive - Positive Cases (PCR), all Probables match screenshots with the exception of 5/21/20. On 5/21/20, the Lab Confirmed and Total Positive numbers are transposed, but the difference equals the Probables number. Patched the numbers for 5/21/20 to address the transposition.

Describe the problem A number of Total Tests (PCR) fields for KY in States Daily display #REF! instead of the expected value. Looks like it happened for all dates 20200512 and earlier.

A search of States Daily for REF! has 61 results. The formula in these cells is just =#REF!+#REF!

I'm guessing this occurred in the process of addressing #730

The bad refs in KY was a formula that got moved too many cells to the left.

Pre/post revert to numbers and placing them in the correct column, without formulas this time: States Daily.zip

#518: Recent Data Anomalies in KY and other states

Issue number 518

muamichali opened this issue on June 24, 2020, 5:47 PM PDT

Labels Data quality

Open in Github

However, I have noticed in recent data pulls (over the past week or so) that there are some highly unusual (implausible) values for certain states during early-mid March. For example, KY goes from having 8 positive cases as of March 12, thousands of positive cases March 13-15, then back to 21 positive cases as of March 16. There are a number of other states with similar strange jumps in the number of positive tests (as well as decreases in the number of negative tests) in early-mid March.

These problems were not present in earlier datasets that I had downloaded from your site (e.g. on May 6). Do you know what happened to explain these unusual values?
