Now not playing anything down at all. But the recent spikes, could that possibly be due to the greater availability of testing? By that i mean initially to get tested you had to be showing symptoms to get tested, and some people show no symptoms, yet now can get tested easier? So maybe initial numbers were 'lower' due to the lack of availability of testing. Just an observation of mine, no science behind it.
Makes perfect sense. Take it to the extreme, if you don't test you will have zero cases to report, unless they turn up in hospital.

Melbournians have been having intense testing. The line at chaddy is like a 3 hr wait from news reports.
