I questioned the accuracy of the stats reported by DoughtyOne and as you would expect, none are really ever checked {nor are they check-able}.

Reported numbers are just that, numbers that some one in gummint decides are valid with no one able to check them.

I stopped following the numbers parade.

I also don’t pay much attention to the numbers. They haven’t been remotely accurate since the early days, if then. The individual you mention seems to be having a lot of fun making the daily report, though, so more power to him.

I can get the abbreviated version right here from you-know-who.

The death rate is decreasing, there are no reports of hospitals overwhelmed, and the overall annual death rate is not increased over the average rate for past few years.

Does anyone know the criteria for calling an epidemic/pandemic over? What are the CDC’s numeric criteria for calling this panic over?

“Reported numbers are just that, numbers that some one in gummint decides are valid with no one able to check them.”

And when physicians and hospitals are rewarded with thousands of dollars for any Covid-related issue (or NON-Covid-related issue if they can get away with it), there’s no WAY the stats will be honest.
