“In some cases it’s looking at the stats myself - and knowing they are not thorough….”
“Not thorough” is a profound understatement, IMHO. Covid stats are bullshit - and probably deliberately so.
The tests are bullshit since there is no way to verify them other than repeating the same test.
The case reporting is bullshit, since the vast majority of people don’t see a doctor for sniffles.
The Covid mortality data is bullshit, since anyone who dies WITH Covid is presumed to have died OF Covid. Same with Covid hospitalization data.
What part of Covid stats are not complete bullshit?
Not necessarily all bogus, but there are holes.
Such as, lots of us never got any official test or saw any doctor.
Another is how many times are patients being counted? My nephew had it, got from work in MD. But resides in DE. How many times was he counted at the fed level?
My last COVID last month was home test.
2 years ago, only my mom and I got an official antigen test out of all us.
But my cousin and hubby and son all got it. Verified hubby and son 2 months later with antibody test - does anyone count those?
