I have a related question: On the Florida Covid-19 Dashboard web site, the data for Sumter County seem to have been averaging about 10 new cases per day, but then spiking to 61 and 80 new cases on September 29 and 30. That doesn't seem realistic. I've noted similar spikes in previous months, most commonly occurring on a Thursday or Friday.

Can anyone explain this, or at least offer a theory as to a possible cause?
