This is due to lack of early testing capabilities, false negative (inaccurate) test results, and persons who do not have symptoms and yet can be contagious and spread the disease. We have seen a recent small uptick in patients coming to our facility with COVID-19-like symptoms in the past week as well. A lot of the experts would multiply the amount of cases by a factor of 10 to get a better idea of how many cases a county has actually had.
