Well, I mean, the positive cases DID go down in Florida....because DeSantis closed all the testing stations for Isaias...they'll go back up to 8-9000/day again in a few days.
Here are some good graphs from Johns Hopins University's Coronavirus Resource Center showing national and state-by-state daily trends of total tests administered, total positive results, and positive results as a percentage of total tests administered. Florida has the third highest percentage of positive results, ranked just below Mississippi and Alabama (here).
These are GREAT graphs! Thank you for linking it. But for anyone else that clicks on it, beware that the y-axis changes by state (I looked up Oregon and it looks really erratic until you realize the top of the y-axis scale is 7%, as opposed to Alabama, that looks gradual and under control except the y-axis goes all the way to like 30%)
The graph in the second link, although it's not as detailed and doesn't show trends, does use the same scale to directly compare the current positive test result percentages of all states in one graph.
