Infinite loop onAppear in SwiftUI, but init() gives me another error

Question

I want to call "getTestCounts" before displaying "Text(testCounts.counts[index].number)".

However, if I use onAppear, I end up with an infinite loop.

I think that since we are creating unique IDs with UUID and spinning them around in ForEach, we end up with an infinite loop.

Infinite loop when using onAppear in SwiftUI I tried to solve this problem using init() with reference to

"Cannot use instance member 'calendar' within property initializer; property initializers run before 'self' is available" The following error occurs.

How can I solve this problem? Thanks for suggestions.

Here is the UI I want to create I want to display the API response value under the date.

Here is the source code where the infinite loop occurs.

struct CalendarView: View {
    @Binding var year: String
    @Binding var month: String
    @Binding var day: String
    @EnvironmentObject var testCounts: TestCounts
    var body: some View {
        let calendar = Calendar(identifier: .gregorian)
        let selectedDate = calendar.date(from: DateComponents(year: Int(year), month: Int(month), day: Int(day)))
        let calendarDates = generateDates(selectedDate!)

        LazyVGrid(columns: Array(repeating: GridItem(.fixed(60.0), spacing: 0), count: 7), spacing: 0) {
            ForEach(calendarDates) { date in
                Button(action: {}, label: {
                    VStack(spacing: 0) {
                        if let date = date.date, let day = Calendar.current.day(for: date) {
                            Text("\(day)").fontWeight(.semibold).frame(width: 45, alignment: .leading).foregroundColor(Color("dayTextBrown"))
                            ForEach(0 ..< testCounts.counts.count, id: \.self) { index in
                                if testCounts.counts[index].date == DateTime.dateToStr(date) {

        }
    }

        let stringSince = DateTime.dateToStr(since!)

Here is the source code that tries to use init().

                        if let date = date.date, let day = Calendar.current.day(for: date) {
                            Text("\(day)").fontWeight(.semibold).frame(width: 45, alignment: .leading).foregroundColor(Color("dayTextBrown"))
                            ForEach(0 ..< testCounts.counts.count, id: \.self) { index in
