There have been 2100 asymptomatic research tests and the positive rate was 0.1%

While I do not know the false positive and false negative rates for the two different tests and I also suspect that the asymptomatic research testing does not necessarily represent a random sample of The Villages, these low rates suggest that The Villages has been doing a good job at following the Government guidelines.
When I see the results for Lake County, Sumter County and Marion County, I know it's PART of the Villages but not JUST the Villages. I haven't seen results, number of cases and deaths, for the Villages only. Anyone have the information or where to find it? Thanks in advance!
