That site demonstrates the erratic nature of current data. For instance, their source data for Nevada is https://app.powerbigov.us/view?r=eyJrIjoiMjA2ZThiOWUtM2FlNS0...

At the moment of this comment that data says that ~2500 tests have been performed and ~2700 people have been tested. Perhaps those numbers were transposed. Maybe there is a simple, explainable mistake. But all the numbers everywhere are so full of errors, it makes casual statistical analysis just a fancy form of home entertainment at the moment.
