Tests per million vs positive samples

The chart compares the number of samples tested per million people in a State or U.T. with the % of positive cases among those samples tested.

Each circle represents a State/U.T. Tap or move your cursor over a circle for details. You can use the drop-down menu to select a State/U.T.

The States in the top-right part of the graph have carried out relatively more tests (above a cumulative average of ~ 39957.4 tests per million people) and also have a higher % of positive cases (above the average of 8.43%) among samples tested.

The States in the bottom-right part of the graph have carried out relatively more tests but have a lower % of positive cases among samples tested.

The extent of COVID-19 cases in these States can be gauged better due to a relatively higher testing rate.

The States in the top-left region of the chart have carried out relatively fewer tests but have a higher % of positive cases among samples tested.

The States in the bottom-left region of the chart have carried out relatively fewer tests and also have a lower % of positive cases among samples tested.

The extent of COVID-19 cases in these States cannot be gauged properly as the picture remains incomplete due to limited testing.

The figures above are based on a combination of numbers reported by the central Health Ministry, and updates from the State governments and Health departments.
