3. Is it more testing, or a genuine increase in spread? And why?

Often if there is a jump in cases reported:

1. Did a backlog of results get reported?

2. Was there a testing push involved?

If not, was there a food processing plant outbreak? And/or a prison outbreak?

If that's not the reason, community spread MAY be to blame.
