Two days before Angell resigned, health officials announced that they had fixed a technical issue in the system that reports testing results. California Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said the glitch caused up to 300,000 records to be backlogged although not all are coronavirus test results and some may be duplicates, CBS San Francisco reported. According to CBS San Francisco, Ghaly told the media that the glitch began when a computer server suffered an outage on July 25 but it compounded when the state did not renew a certificate for an intermediary for one of the country's biggest commercial labs. As a result, the state did not receive results from the lab for five days. The glitch came at a time when case numbers played a vital role in school reopening decisions. Fall classes in California are slated to begin next week.

"Our data system has failed," Ghaly said Friday, adding, "We apologize. You deserve better, the governor demands better of us and we are committed to doing better."

Holy shit so California has been even worse than we thought.

Yeah. CA was having 10k cases a day before the glitch. It went down to 7-8k cases.

It glitched and was showing more cases than reality or less?

Glitched, preventing 300,000 case results (of one lab) from being added to the State total counts.

So California may possibly has an additional 300,000 positive cases.

That possibility is so fucking negligible it's pointless to bring it up.

It LITERALLY says that they're not all coronavirus test results and some are possibly even duplicates

Also not only that but it's literally just "results". Not "positives".

You really are a fucking garbage troll.

Looking at how (poorly) the US is handling this overall, Bugs would have to saw off about 80% of the entire country.
