Do you or does anyone know why the first site always has more deaths/cases than the CDC?

Updating of all the different sites is partly manual, and takes place at different times.

There are usually no major differences by the end of the day. I always check at least 3 different sites before posting my numbers.

Re: Cases:
“This page will be updated daily. Numbers close out at 4 p.m. the day before reporting.

***On Saturday and Sunday, the numbers in COVID-19: U.S. at a Glance and the figure describing the cumulative total number of COVID-19 cases in the United States will be updated. These numbers are preliminary and have not been confirmed by state and territorial health departments. CDC will update weekend numbers the following Monday to reflect health department updates.***”

CDC now tracking deaths.

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/COVID19/index.htm

per CDC:

“Note: Provisional death counts are based on death certificate data received and coded by the National Center for Health Statistics as of April 3, 2020. Death counts are delayed and may differ from other published sources (see Technical Notes). Counts will be updated periodically. Additional information will be added to this site as available.”
