I wouldn’t believe the CDC if they told me the time of day.
OF COURSE SO....no surprise here! They are as accurate as counting confetti thrown from the top of the empire state building on New Years eve!!

A friend of a friend was diagnosed with Covid19 on Sunday morning. He had been tested on either Tuesday or wednesday of last week. It took that long for him to get his results. He called every day to check. His wedding was in the in between time. Oops. Now why did it take so blame long????????????????????????????????????? The doctor thought the person had nothing serious. He only had symptoms for two days.
The core issue here seems to be lumping together both positive swab tests and positive antibody tests as active cases in the case counts. This elevates active cases inaccurately as you get a positive antibody test if you had Covid in the past and got over it.
Do I have this right?
How big of an issue is this in the current case counts, vs. a true increase in active cases due to things like Memorial Day parties, graduation parties, and #BLM protests?
A penny for your thoughts.
So the Dem governors and some Republicans are using the raw high numbers to justify cracking down ever harder and even reversing some of their tentative reopenings to cause even more economic damage.
