Report COVID-19 testing from all sources and not just DHS.
Your failure to report all testing makes it appear that you have something to hide. Get the data, and make it available!

Why is the testing chart showing a reduction instead of a upward trend?

Why are you NOT inputting faxed positive cases to get a more accurate number of case positives??You are using this data to determine when it is time to open up and although this is an inaccurate number you continue to use it to make life and death decisions.
Pretty SAD when you cannot hire a few individuals to manually input these numbers into the system to give us an accurate picture. Just another failure on the part of our leadership!!!!!!! -

Shouldn't the testing be a lot larger number by now and the the results of those test provided in a timely manner, if we want people back to work and schools opened.

I collect data from a couple sources one is USA Facts (https://usafacts.org/visualizations/coronavirus-covid-19-spread-map/) and a second is the COVID Tracking Project (https://covidtracking.com/). The absolute numbers vary although a few do agree. The important values are the trends.
I have the most difficulty with the Percent Positive number. From the Tracking Project numbers I calculate percentages of over 14% compared to the DHS number of less than 10%. Even using numbers from the DHS Summary I calculate 11%. That is why I watch the trends and have little confidence in the absolute numbers.

I think asking DHS to report data that is not from DHS is dumb. This web site has some shortcomings, and some broken areas (death page is seriously broken), but compared to some other state sites, its pretty **** good.

Seems like a low number of test being preformed if the number given is all, Shouldn't we be 3 to 5 times higher by now?

I am trying to take charge of my own health plan. To do that I need daily data history for statewide, not just county wide. I see you have county data, but no statewide summary data. Could you please just provide a daily CSV export, and they all will be happy.

Still a very low number of tests are being report per day and also a break down of new people test and those that are repeat test (Which don't know, but for example someone in our Govt. been tests and how many times)

To open the state up Ducey & crew was holding back numbers & probably still is.
Ducey has said Arizona’s health care system can care for any virus patients and has enough hospital beds and ventilators available.
He announced Thursday that schools can reopen after summer break and youth sports can resume immediately.What could possibly go wrong?

Agree! Should be CONFIRMED cases not Suspected. Either the person has Covid-19 or they don't. If you are not sure, they shouldn't be included in the statistics. What are we hiding here? Do we receive more federal funding if we can fudge the numbers? Makes the public suspicious.

Have a few Volunteers walk around Veteran Medical Centers asking for donations for Covid-19.

What happened to the testing and positivity data by day? That seems to have been replaced by deaths by day. We know from watching the corona virus briefings at the White House that deaths will lag behind positive tests. It is important for the community to be able to see number of tests and number of positives by date so that we can be informed with accurate information. Please bring that data back.

CDC says “identify, track and trace, quarantine”. You in failing to take first step which is TESTING in order to “identify”. How will you open up the economy (even slowly) and be safe if you cannot test?? Other states are making progress while you fail.

Most of what you want is in these two locations. 386 tests were from azdh the rest are from private labs. Good luck to to you.
I also would like to know the statistics from cities and towns. Counties have their own websites
