The CDC reports it was told of 1.9M tests last week.  That's roughly 270,000 tests per day.  

It may not change your point, but actually the US is currently averaging about 800,000 tests per day according to covidtracking.com

Thanks for the correction.  I wasn't careful enough to recognize that the CDC apparently doesn't get all the tests (but that surprises me). In the text above the table I used was "The number of specimens tested for SARS-CoV-2 using a molecular assay and reported to CDC by public health laboratories and a subset of clinical and commercial laboratories in the United States are summarized below."
