    This 'positivity rate' is nothing but bull shit. If you test only one person and if he turns out to be positive, then the positivity rate is 100%. If you get more people to the testing centers, the positivity rate drops. The traders associations in different districts of Kerala and pooling in money to get people from villages to the district headquarters for testing, thus by reducing the positivity rate and thus prompting the government to allow the shops to be open!!!
