that curve doesn't really tell us much without knowing testing numbers. The actual curve could look a lot different.

Yes and no. It tells us we're on a nearly exponential growth rate which is bad and, knowing we're way undertesting so far, it tells us we probably have 50,000 actually infected people as the rule of thumb the epidemiologists have been using is 10 infected for every positive case. Which is much worse. If we were testing tens of thousands of people per day, like South Korea and Germany and a few others, we'd have a far more complete picture. But we're still not, although it's getting better.

I am guessing the actual curve is probably close to that but the Y axis needs to be re labeled. Surprised administration not using a logrithimic chart

I think the biggest impediment has been a lack of testing up front.

They should be random testing people without symptoms
