The media with numbers are like water and oil.
I am not disputing that the shut down hasn’t saved lives. It has kept the flu numbers down but not to the degree that this chart shows. Obviously the numbers of Corona deaths are some what cooked. It must also be considered that people with “normal” flu symptoms are just toughing it out at home so they are not included in stats.

For later....
So I guess the first question is” (a) is the Wordometer numbers more accurate, and (b) if so why?.
The second question starts with suggesting: (a) the Worldometer numbers are not more accurate, and must also answer, (b) why?
And, the third question is: (a) if the answer to the first question is yes, the Worldometer is more accurate, then (b) what is wrong with the CDC and its data collection methods.
Or, in a possible answer to all of the questions, maybe ALL the numbers are only partly from actual death reports, like from surveys of the reported numbers, from which the final number has been extrapolated. Like they are all guesses, not actual counts?
great link to the CDC Covid 19 numbers of deaths
