Thanks for this link. It really does explain a sudden jump in cases. Effective May 11, the definition of a new case changed to include anyone where the antigen or antibodies were detected. Since we thought there were a lot of cases not reported due to being asymptomatic, they would now be found with the antibodies. I, personally, would not count these as new cases. I might add them to the count of cases but also report them as cured cases. That would give us a better idea of how many cases there really had been and a much more accurate idea of how many active cases we currently have.
