Apparently two reporters were shocked yesterday to see two folks in their 20’s listed as dying of Covid-19 the same day in the same Florida city. They know the science and data. Upon inquiring as to underlying conditions:
“The first one didn’t have any. He died in a motorcycle accident,” Pino said.
“But you could actually argue that it could have been the COVID-19 that caused him to crash. I don’t know the conclusion of that one.” “
And your point? The last item was the malicious extreme of possibilities and I clearly subscribed to the opposite end. If a lab director doesn't have the resources to process all the cases they may "instruct" or "tell" staff on how to enter data. You're making a fool of yourself.
You are the one suggesting some sort of plot to distribute incorrect information. Why not support such suggestions instead of making personal attacks against someone questioning such allegations?

I know a person who was tested 5 times. Three times positive, two time negative. Positive then negative, positive then negative, now positive again. I’m sure they counted three for the stats. The test are very inconsistent

From what I understand from several nurses and a doctor they count each test as 1.
While the demographics have changed and are now skewing younger, one thing is certain regardless on how you view this virus. Yesterday there were 77,000 new cases diagnosed. Looking at the daily cases of influenza for the '19 - '20 flu season there were 13 weeks of over 60K cases. Weekly chart attached. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/weekl...regt_cl27.html.
Yesterday alone there were 77K cases and that number is DAILY, not weekly.
The transmission of the virus is much greater than the flu and by extension the greater the chance for infection of others.
How many people do you know that are sick right now? Surely with such a horrible, deadly pandemic many people that you know must be sick... right?

Currently thankfully no one. However, I did lose two cousins 17 days apart on Long Island. I do know the pain of losing someone and therefore I will go to any length to avoid getting sick.
Exactly! So how high are those numbers really? With a counting system like that, of course there is an uptick! Being played!
I will say that was early on and supposedly there are now checks in place to correct it, but that means it’s likely still happening. The screw up that was also happening was some states were counting the test for the virus and the test for antibodies as one test each. So each person got counted twice.
