As positive cases rise, the state increased its goal from 110,000 to 165,000 tests a month by year's end.

The original goal of 110,000, roughly 2% of the state’s 5.2 million population, was exceeded in May.

That goal is increased to 140,000 from June to August and 165,000 the rest of 2020.

Mobile testing clinics have helped covid-19 testing reach many South Carolinians in rural and under-served areas.
