Because they're not really cases.

Once upon a time—i.e., last year—if you told someone you had a "case of the flu,"
or a "case of pneumonia," it would obviously mean that you weren't feeling well,
due to your flu or pneumonia symptoms. 

It would not mean that you'd been tested for it, even though you felt perfectly fine, 
and the test came back "positive." But then, last year, no doctor would have tested
you for a respiratory virus when you had no symptoms of a respiratory virus. 

This is just one of many staggering examples of how crazy this whole crisis is, and
how crazy it has driven countless people, especially the best-educated, who've
swallowed such absurdities hook, line and sinker.

Agrowing body of research suggests that a significant number of confirmed COVID-19 infections in the U.S. — perhaps as many as 9 out of every 10 — may not be infectious at all, with much of the country's testing equipment possibly picking up mere fragments of the disease rather than full-blown infections. 

Confirmed cases of the disease have been the focal point of public health authorities and governments worldwide for many months, with countries across the globe working frantically to shore up their testing infrastructure and ensure that most citizens who want a COVID-19 test can obtain one with relative ease.
